      They actually paint it rather frequently (every two years), but they wait for the rainy season to end to do it. It rains heavily for 6 months and stays dry for 6 months, give or take. The video is from may, when the rainy season is about to end. Since there are no roofs for some structures they take the load of the rain and the paint will peel easily. Bad planning there, for sure, but oh well.

    Robert Hughes famously called Brasilia a "ceremonial slum infested with Volkswagens". This was in 1980. I don't know whether the rusting metal, the flaking concrete etc. has been fixed since then. I've never been there... :)

      That's not the best way to call Brasilia (or any other city in the world) in the 80's, but guess it's not totally wrong, for sure back then the city was really on it's firsts steps. Lots of people from Brazil tried to go to brasilia that time seeking a better life, what caused the formation of a lot of illegal activities, since then there were a lot of measures taken trying to smooth the situation, summing up, they found a way to push those wishful people away from the downtown (really far away). But nowadays those assentments got really safe, and all'n all nice to live for cheaper rent. I live in brasilia and I really enjoy how modern and safe it is compared to the rest of the country, it's a really nice place to live or tourist.

      Slum? Brasilia has some of the best living standards in Brazil. Even the former poor areas are better off. There are still poor regions, of course, but nowadays it's nowhere near a slum. The city was just 20 years old in the 80's so yeah, maybe that's the reason. Also, this video in no way represents the city. It shows just the government area.

    • @Antonio88870

      Brazil went through a ban on imported cars through four decades and Volkswagen was the largest brand in the country back then, so Volkswagen was the dominant brand on the streets on the whole country for decades. In fact, even now, three decades after the end of that ban on imports, Volkswagen leads the market.
      And about the city, back then it was still under construction. The official date of inauguration goes back to April 21th, 1960 but a good part of it was still being built through the following years and yes, even during the early '80s as the city was built over nowhere and the infraestructure was under development. A lot of people tried a life in the newrly made capital. Some succeded and some didn't and ended on crimes but that was the 80's and Brasília is far away from a slum. There are rish and poor neighborhoods in Brasília as it is just like anywhere else but saying the whole city is a "slum" aint right now, for sure wasn't back then neither

    For foreigners: Don't forget to visit the City Park, the Brasília Botanical Garden, the Pontão do Lago Sul, also the Dom Bosco church, in Asa Sul, during the day or at sunset because it is very beautiful, I also recommend visiting the Núcleo Bandeirante and Taguatinga, this is the "real" Brasília, there is the Brasilia culture, many people playing soccer, basketball or skateboarding. It's a shame that tourists always stay in the central part, where there are hotels, terraces and political buildings, which is obviously important, but no one lives there, they just work. Anyway, great video...
