Water Pavilion Description
Of the many memories of the Great Lisbon International Exhibition in 1998, one in particular goes to the Water Pavilion.
Conceived originally by the architects Alexandre Burmester and José Carlos Gonçalves, the Water Pavilion is a bold architectural proposal that, even today, marvels who visits it.
It seems to be hanging in the air.
Its mission is to raise awareness for the preservation of water, a natural resource that is simultaneously a source of life. It invites visitors to lay hands on, having fun on a trip with countless experiences that we are about to start.
This is the journey of a river, from the source to the mouth. Knowing the strong connection of the Portuguese, and especially of the Porto inhabitants, to the rivers and the sea, climb the stairs. In doing so, imagine climbing a mountain toward the source of the river.
