BELO HORIZONTE (MG)
Casa do Baile, Pampulha. The Casa do Baile (Ballroom) by Oscar Niemeyer, the most famous architect in Brazil, originally was designed for dancing events. It is one of the constructions by Niemeyer along the artificial Pampulha lake.
Nowadays, small exhibitions about architecture, design, art, or photography take place. The Casa do Baile also has a small garden, with some flowers, trees, and plants. One of the most colorful is the African lily, the Agapanthus africanus, a wonderful lily specimen that is commonly found in many gardens and parks in Brazil and abroad.
