    When thinking about stuff to do in
    Brasilia, the Monumental Axis (comparable to the National Mall in Washington, DC) comes to mind.

    This monumental area is one of the most famous places to visit in Brasilia and is based around
    the Praça dos Três Poderes where the Planalto Palace, seat of the executive branch, the Congress, and the Federal Court are all located.

    Without leaving the Monumental Axis, you'll find plenty of other essential things to see in
    Brasilia. The capital of Brazil has an excellent network of museums, such as the Pantheon of Fatherland and Freedom, the JK Memorial, and Cultural Complex of the Republic, which houses the Honestino Guimarães National Museum and the Leonel de Moura Brizola National Library.

    One of the best attractions in Brasilia is the Catedral Metropolitana Nossa Senhora Aparecida, commonly known as Brasilia Cathedral. Built in 1970, its amazing structure is formed by 16 concrete columns weighing 90 tons.

    Other things to do in Brasilia include visiting the Juscelino Kubitschek Bridge (also known as the Bridge JK) and Alvorada Palace, official residence of the President. Finally, one of the most popular Brasilia activities among local people is visiting Paranoá Lake, a haven for windsurfing and wake-boarding. This large artificial lake also houses the marina of the city, the second largest marina in Brazil. Still wondering what to do in Brasilia?
