The experience
A modernist garden designed in the 1960s by landscape architect Gonçalo Ribeiro Telles, wrapped around the Gulbenkian Foundation. Concrete paths thread between a lake, water streams, grassy clearings and dense stands of trees, with benches and an outdoor amphitheatre placed among them. Admission is free and the grounds connect directly to the museum and modern-art centre.
One of the calmest green spaces in the city, a designed landscape of shaded nooks and water rather than open lawn.
