Catedral da Sé January 25th




Right near the bairro de Liberdade and 25 de Marco lies the Catedral da Sé.  Wow talk about impressive architecture, the Cathedral is said to be the 4th largest neo-gothic cathedral in the world and took over 50 years to build.  Walking inside the Cathedral brought back memories from my Senior year of humanities class with Ms. Ames when we studied architecture, flying buttresses, etc...   Right by the Cathedral, in the park was a 5 sided metal object, with the names of various cities of Brazil on it.  After asking around, I found out that each of the sides pointed directly to that corresponding city!
