Tryp Brasil 21

Location. One of the newest cities in the world, Brasilia was inaugurated in 1960 to replace Rio de Janeiro as Brazil's capital. A UNESCO World Heritage Site, 2.2 million inhabitants reside in Brasilia, mainly in the outer lying suburbs rather than in the famously designed city center by Brazilian architect Lúcio Costa. Costa originally wanted to design the city in the shape of a butterfly but later settled on the airplane as an organizing form and a grand monument to Brazil's modernization. The Tryp Brasil 21 in Brasilia, Brazil, is the first hotel of the Brasil XXI Complex and so is located in the middle of the enormous airplane-city-center. Many important government buildings and the space-age Cathedral of Brasília were designed by architect Niemeyer Oscar Soares, a Brazilian who was heavily influenced by revolutionary French Modernist Le Corbusier. The hotel occupies a prime location, sitting along the Eixo Monumental between two major landmarks: the TV Tower and the City Park. It is also nearby the Esplanade of Ministries. Juscelino Kubitschek International Airport is 13 kilometers away.
