The Niterói Contemporary Art Museum (Museu de Arte Contemporânea de Niterói, or MAC, in Portugese) is located in the city of Niterói, Brazil. It is set on a cliffside, at the bottom of which is a beach. It was designed by Oscar Niemeyer with the assistance of structural engineer Bruno Contarini,


 the museum is 16 metres high; its cupola has a diameter of 50 metres with three floors. The building has been likened to a UFO. A wide access slope leads to a Hall of Expositions, which has a capacity for sixty people
The museum has a beautyful view as we can see in the picture. So..it can be a good place to take a picture. It also have a bistro. It currently houses “Truth”, paintings and sculptures by Roberto Coda Zabetta that honor the memory of Brazilians
