About Brasília
Brasília is Niemeyer's modernist fantasy built in the cerrado, a planned city designed in 1960 where symmetry and futurist architecture rule and nature is relegated to planned parks. The city is eerie and isolating despite its grandeur, a monument to one man's vision more than human need. Yet its aesthetic innovation rewards exploration.
