- Garden of the Senses in Porto
The Garden of the Senses in Porto is a unique space designed to foster harmonious interaction between people and nature through the activation of all five senses. Located in one of the city's green areas, it forms part of a broader initiative to develop ecological and cultural recreational zones.
The garden’s concept is based on stimulating sensory experiences through carefully selected plants, landscape compositions, and architectural elements. Different zones of the garden are dedicated to awakening sight, hearing, smell, touch, and taste. Special emphasis is placed on aromatic plants, textured surfaces, and the natural sounds of water movement and rustling leaves.
Pathways, gazebos, and rest areas are thoughtfully integrated into the natural environment, promoting a sense of tranquility and reflection. Visitors can enjoy vibrant flower beds, themed plantings, and small water features, each designed to stimulate a specific sense.
The Garden of the Senses is also used for educational programs aimed at fostering environmental awareness and sensory development in both children and adults. Workshops, guided tours, and outdoor activities are regularly organized.
Combining aesthetics, therapeutic effect, and educational value, the Garden of the Senses has become an important part of Porto’s urban landscape, helping to strengthen the bond between people and the natural world.
