Renowned for its modernist lines and futuristic design, Brasilia is a study in urban planning and the only city built in the 20th century to be counted among UNESCO's World Heritage Sites. Where only five years before its inception there was desert, now there are innovative buildings and imaginative monuments, ranging from the hyperboloid Cathedral of Brasilia to the lunar-esque Complexo Cultural da Republica to the glass-box Palacio da Alvorada.

Another structure by award-winning architect Oscar Niemeyer, this landmark cathedral features stunning interior glasswork.
Fabulous stained glass dome encompasses a cool and peaceful area with angel sculptures suspended from the roof. Don’t miss the baptistery, thru a corridor on the left which displays photos and information about the construction.

The interior of the Santuario dom Bosco is one of the most beautiful rooms that I know. When entering the Santurario, I'm struck every time by the beauty of the vast room that is surrounded by large blue glass windows that transcend the room into a divine sphere.
