Vestir bem e barato, só aqui

"VESTIR BEM" / "DRESS WELL"
"E BARATO" / "AND CHEAP"
"SÓ AQUI" / "ONLY HERE"

Long time passed when this building was a comercial place, but this advertising always make part of this plaza, now all this area is in a process of cleaning and reabilitation(this buildings are not used! Porto have many beautifull buildings like these abandoned) but the advertising is for eternity.

Luis I bridge [II]

Just a plate in the bridge with his name to clarify this issue.

Luis I bridge [I]

I will start this project with a photo taked in june 2004 from Guindais Funicular, in front we could see the marvelous two-level iron bridge - Luís I, links Porto with Vila Nova de Gaia. Most people commit two errors related to this bridge, first one and most common name "D Luis I" is wrong, the other mistake is who build it, it´s usual to hear the name of Gustave Eiffel but Téophile Seyrig was the designer.
Porto is known by his beautifull bridges, and i´m going to show them all here in the future, including this recovered Luis I, it still holds the record for the world's largest iron arch and recently was deeply recovered, this work started when this photo was taked.
