Hello friends, I found out that there was an exhibition of works of art at the Quinta de Vasco de Gama, one of the emblematic municipal chamber properties of Seixal, and it is worth dedicating a post to the local artists and we will explain a little the history of the villa that has more than half a century of history! The house has a beautiful view because in front of it is the bay of Seixal, to discover its "foundation" we must travel to the 15th century where it was built by one of the most emblematic characters of Portugal (Vasco de Gama)๐๐ฐ๐โโ๏ธ

Unique hydraulic architecture in the country ๐จโ๐ป๐งญ/ Arquitectura Hidraulica unica del pais๐ฉ๐
This is the only house from the 15th century with a hydraulic system that explains how the tide of the bay works and it has an adaptation in the gardens that allows the water from the bay to enter when the tide is high, allowing the entry of ecology. marina inside the garden, which allowed fishing at that height within the facilities themselves, unique in Portugal and possibly unique in Europe, one more reason to visit it and learn about the behavior of the ecology of the bays! And as a curious fact, entry is free!๐ต๏ธโโ๏ธ๐จโ๐ป๐ฉ
Esta es la unica casa del siglo XV con un sistema hidraulico que explica como funciona la marea de la bahia y es que tiene una adaptacion en los jardines que permite que el agua de la bahia entre cuando la marea esta alta permitiendo la entrada de la ecologia marina dentro del jardin, lo que permitia que en esa altura se pudiese pescar dentro de las propias instalaciones, unica en Portugal y posiblemente unica de Europa, una razon mas para visitarla y aprender sobre el comportamiento de la ecologia de las bahias! y como dato curioso es gratis su entrada!๐โโ๏ธ๐ฐ๐
Farm to grow citrus fruits๐จโ๐ป๐งญ/ Finca para cultivar de citricos๐ฉ๐
The main inspiration of the man (Paulo Gama) to build the estate was with the purpose of inspiration from the "caravel" ships that set sail in the medieval era to discover and trade with India, that is why it is normal to get many decorations dedicated to figures mythological seascapes, however the farm also had the commercial interest of planting citrus trees that are maintained today to keep the property as original as possible, the farm is open almost every day and closes at 6:00 p.m. in case you are passing through the southern area of Lisbon๐โโ๏ธ๐ฉ๐ท๐ป
La principal inspiracion del seรฑor (Paulo Gama) de construir la finca era con el proposito de la inspiracion de los barcos "caravelas" que zarparon en la era medieval para descubrir y comercializar con la India, por eso es normal conseguir muchas decoraciones dedicadas a figuras marinas mitologicas, sin embargo la finca tenia tambien el interes comercial de la siembra de citricos que hoy en dia se mantienen para mantener la propiedad lo mas original posible, la finca esta abierta casi todos los dias y cierra a las 18:00 por si estas de paso en la zona sur de Lisboa๐๐
Chapel with marine inspiration๐จโ๐ป๐งญ/ Capilla con inspiracion marina๐ฉ๐
What a romantic space๐ฐ๐๐ท๐
I know that many come to the gardens to have outdoor dates, today that is not my case hahah well let's say we came more with the interest of seeing the art, however it seems to me that the area has that very original romantic atmosphere too beautiful to make a picnic with your partner or with your family! As you can see, the chapel was added in the 18th century and was built with pure marine decorations including shells, clams and more! including tiles๐๐งญ
se que muchos vienen a los jardines para tener citas al aire libre, hoy no es mi caso hahah pues digamos veniamos mas con el interes de ver el arte, sin embargo me parece que el area tiene ese ambiente romantico muy original demasiado bonito para hacer un picnic con tu pareja o con tu familia! como puedes ver la capilla fue agregada en el siglo XVIII y fue construida con puras decoraciones marinas inclusive conchas, almejas y otros mas! inclusive azulejos๐๐ฉ
The mansion has several modifications and restorations, however it remains as original as possible, a chapel was built that dates back to the 20th century and was used to perform Christian masses for the residents until it was suspended by the chamber since Seixal has its own church that It dates back to the 16th century, there are many myths and legends about the mansion, some said for many years that it was haunted and in fact sometimes there are some activities where they turn the mansion into a play of horror that I participated in last year and my God. ...A terrible fear!๐ท๐๐โโ๏ธ
La mansion tiene varias modificaciones y restauraciones sin embargo se mantiene lo mas original posible, se construyo una capilla que data del siglo XX y que sirvio para realizar misas cristianas a los pobladores hasta que fue suspendida por la camara ya que Seixal tiene su propia iglesia que remonta del siglo XVI, hay muchos mitos y leyendas sobre la mansion algunos decian por muchos aรฑos que estaba embrujada y de echo a veces hay algunas actividades donde convierten a la mansion en una obra de teatro de terror que participe el aรฑo pasado y mi Dios.... Un miedo terrible!๐ง ๐
Normally the chamber at a cultural level is one of the best in Portugal as it is always doing activities for the community and greatly encourages the local artists who today placed their works of art in the patio of the mansion giving that even more interesting touch to our visit ! We cannot enter the mansion because it is very well preserved, when I entered it was at night during the activity but it is too spectacular to see all the 100% original decoration from the 18th century.๐๐ง ๐ฐ๐
Normalmente la camara a nivel cultural es una de las mejores de Portugal pues siempre esta haciendo actividades para la comunidad e impulsa mucho a los artistas locales quienes hoy colocaron sus obras de arte en el patio de la mansion dando ese toque aun mas interesante a nuestra visita! no podemos entrar en la mansion pues esta muy conservado, yo cuando entre era de noche en la actividad pero es una cosa demasiado espectacular ver toda la decoracion del siglo XVIII 100% original.๐งญ๐โโ๏ธ๐ท
The introduction of the tiles in the mansion dates back to the 18th century, a little late since they are of pre-medieval Arabic origin, however many of them are original and were never restored, as you can see everything has a naval theme because let us remember that Portugal was a power. naval world in the 15th-16th century๐จ๐จ๐จ
La introduccion de los azulejos en la mansion remontan del siglo XVIII un poco atrasado ya que son de origen arabicos pre-medieval sin embargo muchos de ellos son originales y nunca fueron restaurados, como puedes ver todo tiene una tematica naval pues recordemos que Portugal fue potencia mundial naval en el siglo XV-XVI๐๐๐
