MAC - Brazil

Some time ago i came across with a weird, incredible, strange things site. You can find there, for exemple, the list of the 10 tallest men in the world, 30 world’s strangest inventions, 12 odd and bizarre fountains... On the top 10 strangest buildings in the world, you'll find the building on this card, the Museum of Contemporary Art in Niterói, Brazil. This is the site: http://villageofjoy.com/top-10-strangest-buildings-in-the-world/

The Museum of Contemporary Art (Museu de Arte Contemporânea de Niterói — MAC) is one of Niterói's main landmarks. It was designed by Oscar Niemeyer.
"A wide access slope leads to a Hall of Expositions, which has a capacity for sixty people. Two doors lead to the viewing gallery, through which can be seen the Guanabara Bay, Rio de Janeiro, and Sugarloaf Mountain. The saucer-shaped modernist structure, which has been likened to a UFO, is set on a cliffside, at the bottom of which is a beach." - in: wikipédia
The card was sent by karina "kazinhabueno".
