Various Interesting Buildings, Less-visited Attractions

September 11, 2014
[...]

My visit to Belém was time and energy consuming, indeed - there are lots of primary attractions, but still - there are several less-usual ones and, some that remain hidden from the crowds...

If you have the time or if you have too much time (sometimes this happens too), then exploring a bit more would be worth.
More so, if you love photography.

Among these were several warehouses, the Museum of Electricity and a statue representing an old seaplane.

Here are several places, attractions that I came across.


Electricity Museum, Belém

The Electricity Museum is within the old Tejo Power Station

Old seaplane monument

Fairey IIIB biplane monument.
These British-built planes have first flown in 1917 and were essentially seaplane bombers.
The only existing piece of these planes is at Portugal's "Museu de Marinha" in Lisbon.

Former warehouses

I assume these were old warehouses. Painted in attractive colours.

Several warehouses in Belém

Sometimes these get transformed into luxury homes, cultural centres, art galleries...
