Brasilia (Brasília en portugais) est la capitale du Brésil. Elle est située dans la région Centre-Ouest, et contrairement aux autres villes de ce pays, Brasilia ne fait pas partie d'un État mais du District fédéral (DF, pour Distrito Federal).
Juscelino Kubitschek avait assuré aux Brésiliens « 50 ans de progrès en 5 ans ». Sous les directives de l'architecte Oscar Niemeyer, les ouvriers travaillaient 24 h / 24 dans des conditions déplorables, grâce à quoi la construction n'a duré que 3 ans et demi.
Elle est aujourd'hui peuplée par deux millions d'habitants, alors qu'elle n'était conçue que pour 600 000 citoyens.
Brasilia est membre de l'Organisation des villes du patrimoine mondial.
