With so much to do in Porto after experiencing every ticked place on a tour guides map, if you find yourself yearning for some musical recreation, then consider spending an evening at one of the most spoken about contemporary concert halls in the country. The energy of the cultural venue is palpable! In stark contrast to the buildings around it, the Casa da Música or House of Music is built facing the Rotunda park on a travertine-paved plateau. The eccentric yet effective shape of the concert hall isn’t the only aspect that impresses.
One of the best cultural venues in Porto, the Casa da Música was designed by the Dutch architect Rem Koolhaas. It was built as part of the Porto 2001-European Capital of Culture. In the Rotunda da Boavista roundabout, the contemporary hall is located halfway between the historic center and the Foz zone. Be sure to opt for a guided tour that will shed light on the innovative architecture, the artistic program, as well as the functionalities of the structure.
It is 313 km away from the city centre. You can take the bus departing from Elevador Da Glória and get down at Estação De Sete Rios. The bus ticket will cost you 24€. Then board a bus from Lisbon Sete Rios Station and get down at Campo 24 de Agosto. The bus ticket will cost you 14€. The bus from Campo 24 de Agosto will take 16 min to reach the casa da musica which will cost you 8€.
