spacer The National Congress Building

Brazil's bicameral National Congress consists of the Senate (the upper house) and the Chamber of Deputies of Brazil (the lower house). Since the 1960s, the National Congress has its seat in Brasília. As with most of the official buildings in the city, it was designed by Oscar Niemeyer following the style of modern Brazilian architecture.

The semisphere to the right is the seat of the Senate, and the semisphere to the left is the seat of the Chamber of the Deputies. Between them there are two towers of offices. The Congress also occupies other surrounding buildings, some of them interconnected by a tunnel.

The building is located in the middle of the Eixo Monumental, the main avenue of the capital. In front of it there is a large lawn and a reflecting pool.

More about Brasilia: The Capital City of Brazil created ex nihilo (out of nothing) in the centre of the country in 1956, was a landmark in the history of town planning. Inaugurated in 1960 (April 21st) it has a population of about 2,557,000 as of the 2008 census estimate, making it the fourth largest city in Brazil.

Brasilia is a masterpiece of modernist architecture. It is the only city in the world built in the 20th century to be awarded (in 1987) the status of Cultural Heritage of Humanity by UNESCO. Brasilia is celebrating its 50th Anniversary in 2010.

Congresso Nacional

"Quando alguém vai à Brasília eu pergunto se viu o congresso nacional e pergunto depois se gostou, se achou que o projeto era bom. Certo de que ela podia ter gostado ou não, mas nunca podia dizer, que tinha visto antes coisa parecida". Oscar Niemeyer

Cartão Postal de Brasília, com sua concepção plástica arrojada, a sede do Poder Legislativo brasileiro é um conjunto de construções onde se destacam as duas cúpulas representando os plenários: a cúpula maior (convexa) do plenário da Câmara dos Deputados e a cúpula pequena (côncava), que abriga o plenário do Senado Federal. No anexo I, formado por dois prédios verticais de 28 pavimentos, funciona a administração das duas Casas legislativas. Ao longo dos anos, outros anexos foram construídos para novos gabinetes parlamentares e instalação de escritórios para as atividades de apoio.

Em ambas as Casas, as visitas são guiadas. Vale a pena conhecer o Salão Negro, o Salão Verde, o Salão Nobre, os Plenários da Câmara e do Senado e as galerias (que unem o prédio principal aos anexos tanto na Câmara como no Senado). Na chapelaria do Senado existe um pequeno museu com o mobiliário da antiga sede do Poder Legislativo que funcionou no Palácio Monroe no Rio de Janeiro. O Congresso possui um acervo artístico expressivo, com obras de Di Cavalcante, Alfredo Ceschiatti, Marianne Peretti, Fayga Ostrower, Carybé e Maria Bonomi.

Visitação: Todos os dias das 9h30 as 17h00.

Telefones: (61) 3216 1771 e 3216 1768

Informações sobre Brasília: A construção de Brasília teve início em 1956. A Capital foi inaugurada oficialmente em 21 de abril de 1960. Hoje é a quarta maior cidade do Brasil, com mais de 2.557.000 habitantes (Censo 2008). Brasília é um Patrimônio Cultural da Humanidade, UNESCO, desde 7 de dezembro de 1987.

spacer Brasilia Rodoviária (bus station)

The bus hub in the center of town, where the Eixo Monumental and Eixo Rodoviario intersect, is called the Rodoviaria. All city buses go through the Rodoviaria.

“Born at a time when fuel was cheap and plentiful, Brasilia is a city where the car is king and pedestrians regularly have to cross six-lane highways. Monumental avenues spin off into seamless slipways shaped like four-leaf clover, deeming traffic lights unnecessary.” (Nigel Tisdall)

What makes Brasilia unique -- besides its amazing architecture -- is the city's layout. Two main traffic arteries divide the city. One (Eixo Monumental), runs dead straight east/west; the other (Eixo Rodoviario) runs north/south, curving as it goes. Seen from above, the city resembles an airplane or an arrow notched into a partially bent bow. Where these two axes intersect is the city's central bus station, the Rodoviaria (not the same as the long-distance bus station).

The other main distinguishing feature of the city plan is the strict separation of uses by zoning. All of the city's important government buildings are located at the "point" of the arrow -- that is, on the eastern end of the Eixo Monumental. All of the city's hotels can be found in two hotel districts near the Rodoviaria. Similarly, the city's offices, shopping malls, theaters, and hospitals are in their individually designated clumps, usually close to where the "bow" meets the "arrow."

Rodoviária de Brasília

Situada no centro geográfico de Brasília, local onde cruzam-se os eixos Rodoviários e Monumental. O autor do projeto da rodoviária foi Lúcio Costa, que concebeu um conjunto de plataformas em quatro níveis. Na plataforma inferior ficam os pontos de ônibus que ligam o Plano Piloto a todos os lugares do Distrito Federal e do Entorno. Nas plataformas intermediárias, a estação divide as asas Norte e Sul da cidade, e, na plataforma superior, estão localizados os dois setores de diversões, constituídos por dois centros comerciais, o CONIC, do lado sul e, do lado norte, o Conjunto Nacional, o mais antigo e tradicional shopping de Brasília.
