Great sanctuary, but it feels like there should be more things to do attached with the sculpture. The poor soul that has to work the ticket office and offer discounts to an area that could probably use as many funds as possible to maintain the place has the tireless job to sit in a small office all day long. My tour guide has me watch a very informative video about the partially preserved sanctuary. s I'm not huge on art, history, and archaeology, I'm not opposed to it. I'm also in a new country at the time and wanted to try to appreciate what was being shown to me. I was already overwhelmed with information and this was only the 2nd day of my Porto area trip. I had guessed it was a less attended site because of the size of its location. One could probably spend hours if they went through every little facet and 'excruciating' detail of the video that was available. The history of this place being a beautiful fountain amongst beautiful artwork is what makes this place the beautiful, less attended landmark that it is. I did have to look it up to remember what I saw. Thank you Internet! read more
