The spectacular building designed by Santiago Calatrava is on a 15,000m sq area on the Pier Mauá that incorporates a huge reflective pool, gardens, and cycle paths. The main exhibition at the “Museum of Tomorrow” is the brainchild of physicist and cosmologist Luiz Alberto Oliveira, and takes visitors through five major areas: Cosmos, Earth, Anthropocene, Tomorrow and Now.

Via a number of experiments and experiences, the exhibition is encouraging people to explore fundamental questions of existence and to envisage the kind of future we all face.

After the tour inside the museum, take the opportunity to see the urban street art in the Olympic Boulevard. See the biggest graffiti of the world: the Mural das Etnias from Brazilian artist Kobra.
