I live in Brasilia, it's the capital of Brazil and also a big and very beautiful city. Brasilia was inaugurated in 1960, the city looks like a plane looking form the sky sky.
There are a lot of monuments to see, The Congress, The Cathedral of Brasilia and The TV Tower. The Congress was inaugurated in 1960 and desing by Oscar Niemeyer , the same who also design The Cathedral of Brasilia, which was inaugurated in 1970. The National Congress Palace looks like an "H" with two bows on each side of it, the left one is turned upside down.
The Cathedral of Brasilia looks like a half-eaten apple, has four prophets on the entrance, three angels inside it and it is made of 16 columns.
The TV Tower was designed by LĂșcio Costa and inaugurated in 1967 with more than 220 meters of height. It is placed on the National Congress, from its top is possible to see a huge area around it, and from there we can also see The Congress and The Cathedral.
One bad thing in Brasilia is the transit. It's very slow and in rush time it stops almost completely. Bus stations are another problem, them just were reformed inside the center of Brasilia, outside it the bus stations still bad.
Brasilia is a very nice place to live, if you have a smart guide he can told you about shortcuts so you can avoid congestions what makes you enjoy much more your visit.

Planalto Palace was inaugurated in 1960 and desing by Oscar Niemeyer , the same who design the Cathedral of Brasilia, which was inaugurated in 1970. The Planalto Palace looks like an "H" with two bows on each side of it, the left one is turned upside down.
The Cathedral of Brasilia looks like a half-eated apple, has four profets on the entrance, three angels inside it and is made of 16 colunes.
The TV Tower was design by LĂșcio Costa and inaugurated in 1967 with more than 220 meters height. It is placed on the National Congress, from its top is possible to see a huge area arround it, and from there we can also see the Planalto Palace and the Cathedral.
