Brasilia was built to be capital of Brazil. The city is lined with monuments, both political and civic:
Presidential Palace, Congress, Courts, Statues, large National buildings (Theatre, Museum, Cathedral), all are open to the public.

Most buildings were designed by the same architect, Oscar Niemeyer, and while each is distinct, all seem to match in perfect harmony.
Thanks to the planning, driving around is easy, by car or by bus and you can find good restaurants and shopping options all around the city. Anyone visiting Brazil should consider visiting Brasilia.]]> http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/26525 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/23761 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/23761 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/23759 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/23759 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/21216 The pousada is one of the cheapest options in that area so you shouldn’t expect much.

But for instance, there’s no shampoo, the shower doesn’t always have hot water and the bed was quite hard.]]> http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/21216
