Brasília National Park

What comes to mind when you think of Brasilia? The great architecture ... politics ... corruption ... ministries ... okay, now forget all this and imagine yourself immersed in a pool of blue water, surrounded by beautiful native vegetation. This place really exists, and can be found right in the middle of the capital. It's called Mineral Water, and it's a refuge for Brazilians who want to escape the stress of everyday life and get in touch with nature, without leaving the city. The National Park of Brasilia covers more than 30,000 hectares, with two pools and tracks. You can take a walk, discovering the native plants, see the multicoloured flowers and hear the birds singing.
