Spend an afternoon at the Serralves Museum of Contemporary Art, where white-walled galleries meet a sprawling park. See modern works indoors, then stroll the gardens and the treetop walkway outside.
Full description
Serralves Museum of Contemporary Art presents a major modern art collection in minimalist white galleries, with music and dance performances also on the programme. The surrounding park is a significant part of the visit, and reviewers say there is enough across the museum, grounds and other buildings to fill two to three hours.
Opinions on the art itself are mixed, and the museum's layout is described by some as confusing, but the gardens and a treetop walkway earn consistent praise. Plan a longer stay than the typical 90 minutes if you want to see the park properly.

Reviews
Some pieces were pretty some not so much. One section had a lot of nudity. But a nice change from older pieces you usually find in museums. The park was very nice tho. And the tree top thing is cute.
