A mural by the Galician artist Liqen entitled "Perspéntico" (name that comes from the combination of the words "perspective" and "esperpentico"). It is a painting in which Oporto is represented as a city in movement, symbolically portrayed as a "cat-city".
Located on Rua Afonso Martins Alho, a crossroad to Rua das Flores and known as "the smallest street of Porto" since it is only 30 meters long.
The metaphor compares the city to the animal, known for its curiosity, agility and cunning, able to discover all corners and still lives up to the personality that gives its name to the street. Afonso Martins Alho was a 14th century Portuguese merchant who, through his sagacity and ability to negotiate, inspired the Portuguese expression “fino como um alho” that can be roughly translated as "thin as a garlic" (alho=garlic).
Amazing piece of 3D street art entitled Half Rabbit in Vila Nova de Gaia, worth seeing with your own eyes. Made of waste materials by Portuguese artist Bordalo.
