Inaugurated in 1991, Curitiba's Botanical Garden is known nationwide for its greenhouse of iron and glass, inspired on the Crystal Palace of London. Here we can see the sculpture "Mother Love", by João Zaco, homage of the Polish Community to the City by the time of the 3rd Centennial of its Foundation (1993).
This is Curitiba, a booming town in Southern Brazil. With more than 3 million people in its Metropolitan Area, this three centennial melting pot city becomes an important industrial center nowadays, famous for its innovative urban projects. This pic, taken from Telepar Tower (357 feet high), shows a part of Curitiba's Downtown.
