Serralves Park and Villa, Porto. Part 2
Welcome to the last but one post concerning my travels around Porto in Portugal. For those of you who are regulars to my blog, I imagine that by now, you feel like you’ve traveled with me ? lol If you’ve missed my previous write ups about the Architecture, Design, Ceramics, Graffiti of the city itself, you can find them by searching for my past posts on Porto, using the search function on the right of the blog.
That’s quite a view.
Inside the villa, it’s all cool tones and sunlight splashes.
Art deco ironwork, greets you.
Some great details, I wonder what it was like to live here back in the 1930’s ?
The parkland surrounding the villa and museum is worth a visit alone.
Everywhere you look nature is bursting out in it’s finery.
Bark, birds and pine cones.
Hundreds of conkers in their cases, looked like a sea of small furry creatures.
The trees and forests were wonderful too.
I loved these skeletal leaf shadows.
Colour, texture and pattern everywhere.
After all that, a brief but glorious sunset, whilst enjoying a beer on the beach.
Next week, Porto the city and all it’s ups and downs… literally ! Catch up on Monday, hope you’ve been enjoying this series of posts about life in Portugal.
