Pretty sure you need to put it on your list of places to see a show. From the outside you would…read morethink the concert hall is huge. Guess again, what an excellent place to see a concert. Not convinced you can get a bad seat. I sat around row J, center and the view was unobstructed and clear. I enjoy analyzing where the best spot in the house would be to not have a head in front of you but I think the seats are perfectly arranged where this isn't an issue for most. I will say, though, I am going to try for row H next time, it looks like it is the best row (haha) likely the same as all the others though. I am going to weirdly focus on the seating. Not sure why I love this so much but they are like sliding seats. So when someone is trying to get through, you don't have to stand up, fold your seat, sit back down. No! You just push back slightly, the seat slides backwards into the back rest and once the person is past, magic, full seat again. To me this says this concert hall was very intentionally built and I can fully support a wise concert hall. Lovely cafe to relax in before the show with some simple but great options (more basic menu in the evenings during concerts) but worth a little snacky and beer to make your wait go faster. I would hangout in this cafe no matter what. Excellent energy and tons of outdoor sitting. Yes please, go.

I have never thought about rating a museum as 1 star, but this really did something special (or…read morelacked anything special) to afford this designation. The 12 Euro ticket comes with entrance into the main exhibitions as well as access to most of the gardens. Keeping in mind that this is a Contemporary Art Museum, I kind of understand the curation, but the artwork was extremely obscure and lackluster. For example, one entire exhibition was dedicated to materials sourced from Portugal, Dubai, and Greece (?) -- marble, timber, and I-beams. It was quite literally 5 pieces of each arranged into haphazard shapes and heights with speakers attached to them to mimic the audio of construction...Underwhelming is not a strong enough word. The rest of the "exhibits" mimicked this contrived art and did little to peak the interest of the observer. After agonising for an hour and trying to find a semblance of talent, you can head off into the gardens where...surprise surprise, there's a ton of construction and things are barely opened or labelled. You basically graze around woods without any direction or guidance, and try to avoid the jackhammers. If it wasn't clear, I feel strongly about advising people against this museum, especially since it's a ways away from the city centre.

The performance was simple, yet the passion was felt. The musicians were incredibly talented, and the singer had a deep, soulful voice that captivated the room.

We got there a little early, but unfortunately, the better seats were taking towards the front. So I would recommend getting there as early as possible to ensure you have a really good view. We did have a good view though, and when we came in, they gave us a glass of port wine. The magician themselves were very talented. Especially the singer. Her voice and vocal were strong and empowering. The guitarist and string player were also amazing. They would often solo during the songs. Overall, a very authentic, cozy, and intimate place to see a fado show

Awesome spot for sunset cocktails…read more Highlights: - Small rooftop with a few tables outside with a great view of the river and sunset - Selection of cocktails and wine--even have a port tasting flight if you'd like - I got a spritz and some sparkling green wine. - Homemade boozy popsicles: sounded so good, wish I would've gotten one on a warm day. - Menu of some snacks if you're hungry - Jazz music playing on the speakers--some nights (believe it's Thursday) it's live music - When you're ready for your bill, you pay inside so you don't have to wait for the waitress. Lowlights: - Very hard to find. From the main street it's up a small alleyway halfway up the stairs by a building under construction. Apple maps did not have it right and we came from the top of the hill down and could not find it. Switched to Google maps and saw it was up the stairs. - Only 1 waitress so hard to get a hold of her. - Make a reservation--we did just in case but didn't think we really needed them. All tables outside were booked the day we went. Enjoyed the sunset here--once we got there.

I like how the sections are partitioned off. I am not sure if there is a bad spot in the stadium. Fun music, lively, and lots of spirit from the patrons.

The stadium is easy to get to from the city center (you can take the metro directly to the…read morestadium). We watched a match here. I was surprised security was lax enough they didn't care what sized bags you brought into the stadium. Security also closed off sections so you couldn't walk around more than 2 sections from where you were seated, and I was disappointed that I wouldn't be able to tour the entire stadium. They also surprisingly have very limited food and drink options. Most of the options are just pre-packaged chips. Nothing hot or freshly made. After the match, most fans either bought food from the few food trucks outside the stadium or the mall food court adjacent to the stadium (even though there's a number of options at the food court, most fans preferred McDonald's or Burger King). Since they close off the sections during the match, you can't access the main gift shop. There's only very small portable shops set up in each section with limited selection. However, there are some vendors outside the stadium with their own merch.

This was nice to see but still limited. There is currently a temporary exhibit of photographs by Frida Kahlo but it seems to only be open for groups and pre-booked tours.
