You know how we say that Rome is an open air museum? Well, no one ever said that to Lisbon, I know, but bear with me.
Couldn't we say that Lisbon is an open-air graffiti museum? Ok, just said it.
If you take a closer look you will find lots of buildings all over the city centre with amazing graffiti art.

Or appreciate Bordalo II’s work, made with garbage material:
Or Vhils work as well, he works mainly with explosives but this piece in particular honours Amália Rodrigues:
Or you can even see a more modern approach:
