These pics are from a old powder factory in

Barcarena/Oeiras – Portugal.This factory

was a few decades ago, one of the largest

powder factories in Portugal. Recently

refurbished and opened to the public as

a mix of culture and amusement space.

Place to enjoy a walk, to relax, to play with

the kids, there is a nice play park for them

as well, or just to learn about

the factory's old times
