Virtual Sandwiched In with Ron Brown - Around the World to Brasilia

Brasilia, the new capital of Brazil, was carved out of the jungle by some of the greatest architects and urban planners of the late 20th century. Brazil was intent on building an urban showplace that would rival the great capital cities of the world and mark the nation as a great world power. The city’s giant skyscrapers, broad boulevards, heroic monuments, and government headquarters were an urban experiment that still remains controversial. However, time has revealed that Brasilia is one of the great cities of the world. Join Professor Ron Brown as he guides this exploration of Brasilia.
