Brasília - One of the best cities in Brazil?

This video is about the city of Brasília. It is the capital city of Brazil and the 4th largest city in Brazil. In this video I will show you the main attractions, infrastructure, cost of living, house prices etc.

About me: I am Swedish and I moved to Brazil over 5 years ago and on my channel I share my experiences of living in the South of Brazil.

I lived in Sao Paulo and now live in Brasilia... Brasília is much more comfortable in terms of getting to point A to B, less crowded, less buildings and more wide open spaces that make you feel more comfortable... I live in neighborhood fairly close to the center and we barely have any news of mugs and robberys here

[pedraaaa]

I love to live in Brasília! When i travel I always feel so grateful when i come back.

Glad to hear you enjoyed your stay here in Brasilia! this is one of the most complete reviews I've seen, especially by bringing up the cost of living in nearby "cities" (we call them regiões administrativas) like Ceilândia and Águas Claras.

Overall Brasilia is a great city. We have our issues but it's far better than most cities in Brazil when it comes to violence, public services and quality of life. If you ever come back make sure to go to Eixão do Lazer on a Sunday, you'll love to hear artists perform chorinho, ride a bike and get some food/beer from the food trucks

we have many haters here in brasilia, but i love my city and wouldnt trade it for any other

[rejaneflorinda]

One thing is certain: we do have a lot of space, and the buildings are low so you get to see the sky in all it's glory. Also, the vegetation around the city is really unique, it is called Cerrado. We also have tourist cities not far from here. Since we are surrounded by the state of Goiás, most of it is in cities like Formosa, Pirinópolis, Caldas Novas, Alto Paraíso. There three towns offer a lot trails and waterfalls that are really beautiful.

I'm born and raised in Brasília and wouldn't trade it for anywhere else in Brazil. To be honest there are only a few other cities in the world I'd live in besides here

I live in Brasília, and I get why people from outside visit and and do not think much of it. Not a great place for tourists. But let me tell you, Brasilia is one of the best cities to live in the world. I'm aware that there's a lot of disparity, surrounding regions are not nearly as well off, but still, many regions, not only Plano Piloto, are great to live in. Plenty of outdoors green areas, little violence, good services in general...public transportation can get tricky due to the horizontal nature of the city, but still...Love it in here, great place for families. One of the best in Brazil for sure. And I've been around outside Brazil quite a bit...It's a great place to live even considering other developed cities worldwide.

pssss... let's gatekeep this one. this is the best city to live in Brazil. its clean, and safe, and there are many restaurants and culture, not to mention the weather is mostly fantastic - not too cold not too hot, except in September - too dtry. people are polite, kids are happy, loads of birds.... small paradise really. ... but people haven't figured this out yet because its not for tourists.

Love Brasilia, like nothing else I, ve seen in the Americas, stunning architecture

[didiermeynders]

I live close by, in Alto Paraiso. I'am always amazed about how spacious Brasilia is compared with other big cities in Brazil. It's also quite safe, as how I experience it for example with Rio. Come there mostly for when I need to do do big shopping or when I need to catch a flight. Always try to stay there at least one night and walk around in the area of the government buildings. Somehow I find it impressive.

An interesting thing about Brasília's architecture is: It is inspired by Soviet architecture. There are several articles about this and it is very interesting.

BRASILIA is UNIQUE in the WORLD! HERITAGE OF HUMANITY by UNESCO! SPECTACULAR, BEAUTIFUL, DIFFERENTIATED, MODERN and FUTURISTIC city! BRASILIA is SPLENDID! 🇧🇷❤️💪🏻

[salvadorcastaneda]

Great overview- I like your insight into the cost of living for comparison relative to other cities- thanks

[lulinasser]

Born and raised in Brasilia, I find it hard to get used to a different city. It is a very peculiar place, in its best.

[adenauerprange]

Maybe you could make a serie about planned cities on Brasil, like, Belo Horizonte, Goiânia, Palmas (other new capitals), semiplanned like Volta Redonda-RJ (and the importance for industrialization and milestone for steel production).

Nasci aqui e não troco Brasília por nenhuma praia! Os salarios aqui sao excelentes!

I lived in Brasília my whole life and I must say Brasília has be best climate in the world.
It is some work to get used to the dryness in the dry season (which lasts for 6 months average)
But once you do... You'll be amazed with 6 months of intense SUN where the sun is further away (this happens in winter)
And then in the rainy season is where the sun is supposed to be super hot, but then now we get air humidity and clouds to even things out.
So in sum: not a cold winter, not a hot summer.
I can get by with pants and a small hoodie all year round, never gets too hot or too cold, I find this completely amazing.
Other thing I must say is that it rarely rains in the mornings in the rainy season... even though we get a LOT of rain, completely disproportionated 6 months raining for when it should rain the whole year... But not in most mornings, so if you're an outdoorsy person, every morning is a good morning for a workout, basicaly. Specially if you live close to the Lake, which boosts life quality a lot, specially in the dry season.

Cheers from Brazil, fellow youtubers <3

Winters can get really cold in Brasília, mainly due to the low humidity. The first time I went to Brasilia, I was quite shocked to go out at night and discover how cold it was... It has even snowed once there in the 60s or 70s...

[paulovictortubino]

I really do love Brasilia and you have a good Portuguese pronunciation

[jenariodefatima]

Para quem gosta de praia, não deve morar aqui. Estamos em Setembro e o clima está muito seco. Agora, quem é daqui, não consegue viver em outro lugar. Amamos Brasilia, com toda sua secura.
