VISIT PORTUGAL _ Quinta da Conceição / (LEÇA DA PALMEIRA)

By DREWO | travels | 22 Feb 2020


Welcome
I notice that I am more and more interested in the work that I have been developing on the blog of visiting Portugal, which is important because in addition to doing what I like for me is culture.
More and more I need to have better content as well as images, on the basis of this concern I decided to invest in a new mobile phone.
All photos from now on are taken with an Iphone 11
-,,-,,-,,-,,-,,-,,-,,-,,-,,-,,-,,-,,-,,-,,-,,-,,-,,-

-Present the way to paradise.
it starts with this entry, it seems a little strange, but it's like Alice in Wonderland, it starts with a "rabbit hole" kkk

The first impact at the entrance reminds us of something very urban, on second thought, we are only 2 km from the city,we can see countless graffiti, I take the opportunity to leave some images of them

We arrived at the site of my visit !!!
Ideal for a public picnic with free entry with several green spaces, laser and art zone has a cafe and a swimming pool designed by Siza Vieira..
It was abandoned for many years and meanwhile sold at a public auction, in which the administration of Porto do Douro and Leixões took over the concession and later sold to a private company with the promise of remaining a public space

I think that only with these two photos I was able to convince how beautiful this place is in the contrast between nature and the human hand, sometimes this junction looks like magic.

With statues and Portals in the Manueline style (style created by King Manuel in Portugal).
With the trees, the greens of the garden and the characteristic flowers of this time of the year in Portugal, it creates an environment worthy of princesses or even a series about art lost by the ancient world., there we imagine the possible and the impossible and in an incredible state of conservation.

We can see that some walls have remained since their construction in the form of walls to protect what would be the garden of the monastery that belonged to the clergyman.

The estate has several fountains also in good condition,
in which the falling greens float on water.

The Monastery also has a small chapel and a small place of worship next to one of the fountains
It is impossible to demonstrate so much beauty just by the image, only who really goes there knows what sees. The charming world outside the city and 5 minutes from it.
Located in the city of Matosinhos district of Porto.
To finish, I just wanted to say that the second part of this beautiful property will soon be here for you to see, since I think I still have a lot of content to talk about and that would be an unpleasant reading,
I am convinced that after this you are interested in visiting

I hope you like this little text, I did it with love for you.
See you soon DREW
