A nice place to visit- very different from other churches, colourful and cheerful. If you go to Brasilia I definitely recommend to visit it.

Not very spectacular from the outside, but the blue windows leave quite an impression from the inside.

A cube-shaped church looking like quite a regular building from outside, what I can only describe as "mesmerizingly beautiful" is the interior of this church not for its elaborateness (of which there's actually "none at all" except for the altar which is also quite plain and just 2 or 3 statues nearby) but for its all four sides "colorful in their entirety" although all of the sides with just one color which specifically is the blue color (of a "stunningly-deep hue" I would say) to see on like each & every one of the small glass plates on all four sides of the Church (except for the corners which are columns with pink glass instead of blue).

And yes, very nice for beautiful pics of the "general interior" (and only just that as mentioned above), this is one church or cathedral where you won't have to spend much time as you might normally do for some specific pics of the beautiful shrines & such in traditional-styled cathedrals (which is what I normally do).

This visit does not take long, but is worth going to as the interior is beautiful!
No fee to enter
The pics give an idea, but rather breathtaking in person.

The church is made of 80 concrete columns and 7400 pieces of illuminated Murano blueish glass, symbolizing a starry sky.
Look up and meet the astonish central chandelier (weighs 2.5 ton).
