Today I want to share with you another green corner that contributes to the well-being of those who live nearby, and those who don't, like me, like to visit it.

I'm talking about the Quinta das Conchas e dos Lilases Park. Located in Alta de Lisboa and close to Portela International Airport, this 24-hectare property offers daily visitors a pleasant place to stroll and relax.

Equipped with play structures for the little ones, as well as green areas where picnics are possible, its extensive open areas also serve to offer its visitors outdoor movie sessions, especially on warm July evenings!

The surrounding urban space is greatly enhanced by the presence of this green lung!

The park has three distinct but interconnected areas: The Central Nave of Quinta das Conchas, the woods, and Quinta dos Lilases.

Large lawns, leafy trees, unobstructed views are just a few of the things you can enjoy for free.

Often used by families to organize weekend picnics, children's birthday parties and gatherings of friends in the open air...

Who doesn't like eating outdoors? Spreading out a towel on the grass, in the shade of the cork oaks, and enjoying a shared meal, obviously washed down with beer, a good mood and a lot of joy?

Used by many senior citizens in the neighborhood, it's part of their daily routine. Getting some air and strolling among the trees is one of the most pleasurable activities we can do in a city, don't you agree?
 
If I could afford it, I'd try to buy a house nearby.

I remember more than 15 years ago, I walked around the area investigating the houses that were potentially for sale. At the time, they were still in the design or construction phase, and very few were already finished... But even so, practically all of them were already sold, except for the largest ones, which were completely out of keeping with the typology I was looking for and much more out of keeping with the budget I had available.

I haven't told you yet, but I know this park reasonably well. And although I don't visit it very often, I end up coming here at least once a year.

Today, as I was alone, I ended up noticing many more details that I hadn't seen before.

As I walked through the northern part of the park, I came across what remains of the Montero Belard Palace!

Who would have thought that at one end of the park, and after a short walk along the paths lined with trees and bushes, we would come across this building!

Unfortunately, the windows and doors of the palace were covered with bricks to prevent entry... What a shame! Only a small window with iron bars gives visual access to the lower part of the building!

On the outside, the voussoirs reveal what must have been a place of refinement... It's a shame that it's abandoned and won't be restored.

I particularly liked the graffiti that has been painted on it. Very enigmatic, don't you think?

At the end of the afternoon, I ended up going for a nice walk, I certainly managed to cover more than 3 kilometers, along dirt tracks and granite tiles...

A very pleasant evening!
 

Hoje quero partilhar com vocês mais um cantinho verde que contribui para o bem estar de quem mora por perto, e de quem não morando, como eu, gosta de o visitar.

Falo-vos do Parque da Quinta das Conchas e dos Lilases. Localizado na Alta de Lisboa, e nas proximidades do Aeroporto Internacional da Portela, esta propriedade com mais de 24 hectares, oferece a quem o visita diariamente um espaço agradável para passeio e descanso.

Dotado de estruturas lúdicas para os mais pequenos, bem como zonas verdes onde é possível fazer piqueniques, as suas extensas áreas abertas, também servem para, principalmente nas noites quentes de Julho, oferecer aos seus visitantes, sessões de cinema ao ar livre!

O espaço urbano envolvente é grandemente valorizado pela presença de este pulmão verde aqui localizado!

O parque apresenta três zonas distintas, mas interligadas: A Nave Central da Quinta das Conchas, a mata, e a Quinta dos Lilases.

Amplos relvados, arvoredo frondoso, vistas desafogadas, são um pequeno número das coisas que podem ser usufruídas gratuitamente.

Frequentemente usado pelas famílias para organizarem piqueniques ao fim de semana, para festas de aniversário de crianças, bem como ajuntamentos de amigos ao ar livre...

Quem não gosta de comer ao ar livre? Estender uma toalha na relva, à sombra dos sobreiros, e deliciar-se com uma refeição partilhada e obviamente regada com cerveja, boa disposição em muita alegria?

Usada por vários habitantes sénior das redondezas, faz parte de uma rotina diária. Apanhar ar, e passear entre as árvores, é das actividades mais prazerosas que podemos ter numa cidade, não concordam?
 
Tivesse eu possibilidade económica e tentaria adquirir uma casa nas redondezas.

Lembro-me que há mais de 15 anos, andei por lá à investigar as casas que estariam potencialmente à venda. Estavam nessa altura ainda em fase de projecto ou de construção, e muito poucas já terminadas... Mas mesmo assim, já estavam praticamente todas vendidas, exceptuando as maiores, que fugiam completamente à tipologia que eu procura e muito mais ao orçamento que tinha disponível.

Ainda não vos tinha dito, mas eu conheço razoavelmente bem este parque. E apesar de não o frequentar muito, acabo por vir cá pelo menos uma vez no ano.

Hoje, como estava sozinho, acabei por reparar em muitos mais pormenores que não tinha ainda visto.

Ao andar pela parte norte do parque, dei com o que resta do Palacete Montero Belard!

Quem diria, que numa das pontas do parque, e depois de uma pequena incursão pelos caminhos ladeados pelas árvores e arbustos, dessemos de caras com este edifício!

Infelizmente taparam as janelas e portas do Palacete com tijolo, para não possibilitar a entrada... Que pena! Só uma pequena janela com barras de ferro, dá acesso apenas visual à parte inferior do edifício!
 
No seu exterior, as aduelas denunciam o que terá sido um local de requinte... Pena estar assim ao abandono, e não ser recuperado.

Gostei particularmente do graffiti que foi pintado. Muito enigmático, não acham?

No fim da tarde, acabei por dar um bom passeio, seguramente consegui fazer mais de 3 quilómetros, por entre trilhos de terra batida, e de ladrilhos de granito...

Um fim de tarde bem agradável!
