Area:Centro/ Saude/ Gamboa Genre: Landmarks / ruin street walking / strolling Church

Located just around the corner, building minerals such as pyramid gets a lot of looks to walk from the Metro "Carioca station". It is built between 1964-1979, and is dedicated to the patron saint San Sebastian of Rio de Janeiro. The building 106 meters in diameter, 96 m height, 20,000 occupancy, has a conical rare in church. Equal relationship with God and the people, the shape of the cone, represents the closeness.
The interior is especially beautiful, stained-glass windows of 64 m extending in four directions north, south, east and west from the ceiling to the floor will change the color by the time the sun, such as time or season hits. We are going to come eye to the beauty of the light that is seen only on the day.
There is a Museum of Sacred Art in the basement. Sculpture, and murals have been collection. Because there is the stoup that was used in the baptism of the royal family last emperor of Brazil, including the II Don Pedro, I will try to pay attention to here.
