Praça dos Três Poderes, located in Brasília, Brazil, is a central public square designed by architect Oscar Niemeyer as part of the city's modernist urban plan. Inaugurated in 1960, it serves as the heart of the federal government, housing the country's three branches of power: the Palácio do Planalto (executive), the Supremo Tribunal Federal (judiciary), and the Congresso Nacional (legislative). The plaza’s minimalist design, surrounded by iconic buildings and symbolic monuments like the Pombal sculpture, reflects Brasília’s vision as a planned capital, emphasizing unity and governmental harmony.
