CCB - Centro Cultural de Belém



To celebrate one year of Lisbon Weekly Photo I chose the CCB - Centro Cultural de Belém (Belém Cultural Center). It is the largest cultural related building in Portugal and was built between 1989 and 1992. At the time, the project raised a lot of criticism because a small country like Portugal shouldn’t afford such cost. Those issues are gone and it is now not only unanimous but also a reason of proud for the city.

  5. Viva, C! I must say, I really like the middle one too. CCB (minus Berardo, please!), antime of day, night or year, yet another endless photo-theme.
    De férias (the country's 4th F-word)? Bem merecido, and how I wish.......
    Be well,
    Stew
