Amazing! It is a place where you can find beautiful architecture works . As Brasilia City is well hot , I prefer a visit this place in the night .

This is a tourist hotspot, because of the architecture and the politics. The open spac is nice and typical for Niemeyer's architecture.

Brasilia is a very young city, capital of Brazil, and is a must-place-to-go.Not only for what it representes to the development of Brazil, from 1956, year of the beggining of its construction, but for the architecture of its buildings, monuments and cathedral, most of all.Concepted by presidente Juscelino Kubistcheck, and planned by Lucio Costa and Oscar Niemeyer, two of the most imprtant architects in Brazil.Restaurants, malls, lakes, parks and zoos, complete the tour one must take to know this vibrating city,

You will be in the political heart from Brasil, not to much to do, but to much to see. Get ready for a lot of sun in your head, but if you are going to Brasília you should stop there to know a little more about the city.

Impressive space, with the presidential palace on one side, the congress buildings on the other, and the supreme court on the third. Do not miss the 5 o'clock change of guard at the presidential palace.Unfortunately the architectural ensamble was spoiled by later additions (the offices of the deputies, the huge flag pole, the dove-like pantheon).

Astonishing modern architecture from Oscar Niemeyer has created an amazing centre for the government of Brazil. In perfect harmony, with an expanse of space, it is also a tribute to the struggle for democracy.

So this is it, where the Congress, the Itamaraty Palace and the Supreme Court is located, whether you like politics or not, you must visit this Square, remember, do not talk about politics there, because you will find supporters of the current government and oppositions, just enjoy the square!

The square houses 3 of the most important buildings in the city: the Congress and Senate house, the Planalto Palace (the presidential office) and the Supreme Court building - each representing the 3 offices that rule the country, with their own autonomy, yet in balance and harmony. This is represented by the distribution of the buildings' construction, forming a perfect triangle. There are also some smaller buildings, like the one dedicated to the National heroes' memory and another that houses a large scale model of the city. you can visit all buildings and get a guided tour in order to learn more about the project and architecture of each building. The one drawback is that the visits are only conducted in Portuguese, which is a real shame. Still, it is worth a look, since is Oscar Niemeyer at his best. Amazing forms and silhouettes, making stone look weightless. Work of a genius.

The plaza is quite drab.. no trees, no place to eat .. nothing quite enticing .. of course, someone will tell you there was/is a reason for that.. but really? how do they expect tourists to hang out there if they call it a plaza...

Nice modern architecture. Its the place you can see all the three main buildings in Brasilia. Go there while visiting the monumental strip.

The Three Powers Square is a must visit place for anyone going to Brasilia. It is the center of the capital and the power center of the country. Next there are several other monuments that can be visited and where you can observe the different architecture of Brasilia.

The Three Powers Square is the heart of Brasilia since the development of the city spread from here. It is surrounded by the National Congress, the Presidential Offices, and Supreme Court. There are several sculptures in the square in memoriam to the city's founding, an diorama of the city under the square, the giant flag pole (largest permenently flying flag in the world), and the Panteão da Pátria (a museum honoring heroes of Brazil) with a permanently lit torch on a structure looking over the square. If you are there on the first Sunday of the month at 10 am, the Brasilian military conducts a formal flag changing ceremony that rotates among the various services.

Nice place situated right between the supreme court, placio de planalto and the congress buildings, a ideal place to take photos of your trip to Brasilia. Recommend to all.
