Museum of Contemporary Arts

Located in Rio de Janiero, this building resembles a flying saucer, and looks even more so when it is lit up at night. It was designed by Oscar Niemeyer. The gorgeous views of the Guanabara Bay, Sugarloaf Mountain, and the surrounding cityscape can be experience at the end of the winding res path to the entrance. It was completed in 1996 and is 16 meters high and has a diameter of 50 meters with 3 floors, while covering 817 square meters reflecting its pool that surrounds the cylindrical base.
