Big Raccoon Wall Arts at Belem, Portugal

I captured this beautiful wall sculpture on the streets of Belem, close to the Cultural Centre of the historic town. The artwork was created by Bordalo II (Arthur Bordalo), a Portuguese sculptor and painter who explores public spaces as a canvas for his artworks.

If you are thinking of visiting Portugal, don’t forget to add Belem to add your touring list.

@AkoEyo Thank you for sharing. I admire his art work as he promotes recycling, including trashes in his murals and sculptures. :slightly_smiling_face: If you’re interested in street art, check my post about it here on Connect or visit my Instagram @streetart.heaven

Hi @AkoEyoWelcome to Connect! If this is your first visit, you’ve come to the right place.

Belem is indeed a wonderful area, @AkoEyo , and i wish I will be able to be back in Portugal in a short time, because I really enjoyed my previous visit.

However, what surprise me is that you didn’t posted this beautiful photo in Google Maps. Why?

I mean, this is quite funny, don’t you agree. Connect is different from Maps, so what you post here will be visible only here, while what you post in Maps will be visible for everyone

Do you have a doubt about how to do something? The Help desk is here for you,with a long list of post with detailed indications on how to post.

Which kind of contents we share in the community? What are Connect topics? will give you an explanation

Thanks for the information @ErmesT . I will endeavour to add it on Google Maps.

And yes, Belem is a beautiful place. You should visit again as I plan to.
