Serralves

The Serralves Foundation groups several spaces on one site: the Museum of Contemporary Art with its Álvaro Siza wing, the pink Art Deco Casa de Serralves, the House of Cinema, and a park of formal gardens, woods and a Treetop Walk at canopy level. The general ticket covers all of them, and a park only ticket is also sold. The site is large enough to fill half a day, and the exhibitions change several times a year.

What to look for

• The Siza wing and the exhibitions of the Museum of Contemporary Art
• The Treetop Walk above the park
• The Art Deco villa and its gardens
• The House of Cinema Manoel de Oliveira
