Portugal

 



27.10.2019 - first meeting of international Erasmus + project P.O.R.T.S. took place in Braga, Portugal.

 

Teachers from Italy, Croatia, Portugal, Greece, Cyprus and Estonia made fascinating presentations about ports in their countries.

Very interesting was the tour in Escola Professional Amar Terra Verde, the host school of mobility. All the presentations were also presented in the same school.

 

An excursion to port of Porto and the lecture by the expert on the field gave us the good overview of all the inner workings of the port.

 

We also had opportunity to visit different sights of Porto - The old town of Porto, famous book shop Livraria Lello, cruise terminal of Porto, different old churches and  winery.

Porto Leixoes Cruise Terminal is terminal for ocean-going passenger ships, opened in 2015. The ports main building is very impressive and beautiful. Many cruise ships and thousands of tourists visit this port every year as the gateway to beautiful Porto.

 

We also visited famous Livraria Lello bookstore in Porto. This I the bookshop, which is considered to be one of the worlds most beautiful bookstores. It dates back to 1881, when two brothers- Jose and Antonio Lello  opened an establishment  dedicated to publish and selling books. The shop is impressive with it’s beautiful staircase and stylish interior. It was wonderful to be able to visit this place.

 

All members, who participated in mobility, by the end of the working week, were tired but full of new experiences and amazing emotions. Participants decided to continue the project firmly but step by step….

 

As we know now, Corona -19 virus disturbed our schedule.
