Brasília



I chose this photo because the Brasília - Brasil's capital - was on birthday (50 years old) last Wenesday, April 21th. Brasília's a planned city where the president of the republic live. Every day, many people visit the beautiful monument.
In this photo, we can see the monument "Dois Candangos". It was made of cobre. It was in the meddle of the Three Powers Square - Executive, Legislative and Judiciary.The monument is 8 meters height.
This monument was inaugurated in 1959. The artist is Bruno Giorgio. In the fact, it woul be called " The Warriors", but it's called "Dois Candangos". Candango is a person who made the Brasília. The " Dois Candangos" represents the workers that worked in the Brasília's building.
Brasília was a project made by President Juscelino Kubitschek. The architecture is from Oscar Niemeyer. Juscelino was the Brasil's president between 1956 and 1961. His lemma was "50 years in 5".
