Northeast January 2013 (4760) in Brasília!

 
Hoje foi o dia do nosso City Tour em Brasília. Apesar do tempo chuvoso, tivemos um ótimo passeio pela cidade e conhecemos os principais pontos turísticos e aprendemos um pouco mais sobre a cidade.

Tivemos a companhia do João do Paletó, um guia local que nos acompanhou durante todo o dia, contando um pouco para nós de cada pedaço desta cidade que foi planejada.

Nossa primeira parada foi na Catedral de Brasília, um local muito bonito com uma arquitetura bem diferente.






Logo após, fomos ao Congresso Nacional, local onde, Deputados e Senadores do Brasil se reúnem para aprovar as leis.

Passamos na frente da Praça dos Três Poderes e no Palácio da Alvorada, residência da nossa Presidente e após, fizemos uma pausa para almoçar. Mais um almoço delicioso.


Após o almoço nos dirigimos ao Santuário Dom Bosco. Uma igreja muito bonita que com seus vitrais reflete uma cor azul em seu interior.













Também visitamos o Memorial de Juscelino Kubitscheck, local onde foi remontada sua residência e onde ficam seus restos mortais.
Para finalizar nosso dia, um passeio ao shopping para comer, trocar e retirar dinheiro. Agora já estamos no hotel e amanhã partimos para Lençóis.
