The Calouste Gulbenkian Foundation is located a few kilometers from the Lisbon Airport, and five minutes walking from the closest subway station, Praça de Espanha. The foundation head-office is surrounded by a beautiful park and a museum.
Lisbon, the capital and largest city of Portugal, has a Mediterranean climate that is strongly influenced by the Gulf Stream, giving it one of the mildest climates in Europe, with an annual average of 3300 hours of sunshine and temperatures averaging between 18°C and 28°C in July. The city is the westernmost capital in Europe, on the Atlantic coast at the point where the river Tagus flows into the Atlantic Ocean.
The city was elected the second travel choice for the year of 2008 by the New York Times:
Bargain-seeking tourists have long flocked to Lisbon, typically among the most affordable of European cities. But now the Portuguese capital is also emerging as a cultural force. The new Berardo Collection Museum, in the historic Belem district, boasts a major trove of modern and contemporary art. Designer hotels like Fontana Park and Jerónimos 8 are attracting style-savvy travelers. And the Design and Fashion Museum, scheduled to open in late 2008, will go a long way toward cementing the city's avant-garde status. The New York Times
It is a beautiful city to visit:
Observing an odyssey of sea creatures in a state-of-the-art aquarium and a breathtaking view from the walls of a millennium-old castle. A seemingly endless modern bridge and tiny turn-of-the-century trams. Climbing picturesque hills by day and bar-hopping through vibrant cobbled lanes at night. Legendary cafés and art nouveau shops. World Heritage monuments and singular museum treasures. Fairytale palaces and sandy beaches nearby. Long dinners and an insatiable appetite for nightlife. Antiquated and trendy; lively and melancholic. All that is Lisbon. A captivating city. A soulful European capital. GoLisbon
