Jardim Gulbenkian
Free admission
Based on the footpaths proposed by the Gulbenkian Gardens, we are offered a reading of the surrounding area, where syntheses of typical plant motifs and patterns from different parts of the globe (China, Greece, India and Borneo, among others) converge to offer a distorted view of our perspective, of what is real and/or represented.
