Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

    A cool place with nice boat rides across the lake. Also a nice place to spend some time on the dry winter of the region. I really like that place!

    If you are looking at the buildings from the outside, you might as well stick your head into the cathedral and see what's inside.
    This is a beautiful church. Also on the inside.

    When in Brasilia, it's worth your while to stick your head into Dom Bosco.
    The ambiance of the blue colored glass is something else.
    A very beautiful church.

    Memorial really well structured and kept, lots of history behind JK’s life, career, accomplishments, and family. Great place to learn about one of Brazil most impactful presidents.

    They offer a guided tour to the congress which is interesting. Please note that is offered in Portuguese only, but even if you don’t speak the language you happen to see some interesting parts of the congress.

    Nice cultural center with various exhibitions. Some of them are interesting. Also some nice gardens to walk with some pavilion also with exhibitions. Some restaurants and bars to have a drink. Worth a visit when in the area.

    You can go and make a barbecue on the special area for this. You take your bike and ride or just run if you like, and after the exercise stop by and have a beer. There is a kart ring where you can compete. There are many enternaing options at the park.

    This is a great place to get an overview of the landmarks of the city.
    The most amazing thing...it's free.
    Hence, it's worth every penny.

    We were thrilled to find the Temple of Good Will (TGW) in the capital of Brazil, Brasilia. The pyramid shaped building has a labyrinth on the lower level inside - set up to walk while holding intentions for peace, with a sign in book, energized water to sip, and a place to write and put your prayer requests to be held in this field. This was what drew us originally as we enjoy the balancing and connected energies of labyrinths in various places around the world.

    We were impressed at all the extensive displays of contributions from many countries around the world including a section of Egyptian statues. Pictures and acknowledgement of many peacemakers from hundreds of years of Earth's history decorate the walls, and there are many displays and contributions from many countries. It is quite inspiring and touching - and we felt worth the visit.

    We learned there that Jose de Paiva Netto, who developed and opened the Temple in October 1989, is also an extensive author. We have yet to check out his writing. We learned while in Brazil there are many interesting authors and individuals who helped cultivate open minded global views.

    NOTE: The Temple of Good Will is open 24 hrs. Their dress code includes being modest and knees covered. For those who show up in shorts they have aprons that can be worn.

    This palace by Oscar Niemeyer establishes a mirror dialogue between classical and modern architecture. The landscape that surrounds it, designed by Roberto Burle-Marx, is marvelous.

    The resort where we stayed is on the Lake which provides lovely views, especially the sun sets.
    There are plenty of sailing yachts and boats on the lake. It is man made and there are areas that have ‘artificial’ sandy beaches. It is about 48 kilometres in length and has a maximum depth of 38 metres.

    There is plenty of wildlife to see such as Herons, Egrets,Kingfishers, Falcons, and Capybaras.

    There are 3 bridges that cross this huge lake the most notable is the JK ( Juscelino Kubitschek) Bridge built in 2002.

    The highlight of any visit must be the sunset!
