Metropolitan Cathedral in Rio de Janeiro Photo

Photographer’s Note

Hi TE friends

Today's post from Rio de Janeiro is the Metropolitan Cathedral of the city.
Built from 1964 to 1979 the cathedral is 80 meters high and has a diameter of 106 meters. It is big enough for 20,000 people standing. The Sacred Art Museum and the Bank of Providence, a charity institution, are also here. The car ride back from the Cathedral is stunning. As you enter the financial center you start running into landmarks like the glass-cube-with-some-parts-missing building of Petrobrás and the inflated Chippendale's highboy at Rio Branco 1. Signs of the times.
