| This gorgeous midcentury structure is formed from 16 identical and massive boomerangs of white structural concrete leaning together in a circle. One of the most visited sites in the Brazilian capital, the Catholic church now attracts nearly 1 million visitors per year. But the cathedral's size and shape aren't its only marvels. In the triangular spaces left between the concrete ribs, stained glass with a modern abstract design of white, blue, green, and tan provides a colorful ceiling from which three angel sculptures hang. And leading up to the entrance, there are four towering statues of Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John — the four Evangelists — cast in bronze. Finally, around the base of the exterior of the church, a serene pool gloriously reflects the image of the church back to the sky. |
