Port of Leixões
The artificial harbour's long breakwaters and docks form a bold geometric shape at the south end of town. It is one of the most striking elements on the map.

The map
About this Leça da Palmeira map poster
Leça da Palmeira is a coastal town in the municipality of Matosinhos, just north of Porto. It faces the Atlantic on one side and the Port of Leixões on the other, across the mouth of the river Leça. On a map it is a strip of dense streets behind a long seafront avenue, with the port's breakwaters and docks drawn in sharp geometric lines.
Rocky outcrops and sandy beaches alternate along the shore. Here Álvaro Siza built two of his earliest well-known works: the Boa Nova Tea House on the rocks and the Leça tidal swimming pools set into the shoreline. The Boa Nova lighthouse stands further north. Inland the grid becomes looser and more residential, crossed by larger roads and industrial sites.
A Leça da Palmeira map poster holds the whole sequence: harbour, river mouth, seafront and the architecture along the coast. It is a strong choice for architects and admirers of Siza, and for anyone who grew up between the beach and the port cranes. The coastline gives the print an edge that is recognisable at once.

Siza's seafront
Álvaro Siza's Boa Nova Tea House and tidal swimming pools sit along the rocky shore. They mark a coastline that architects around the world admire.
River Leça mouth
The small river Leça meets the sea beside the port. It separates Leça da Palmeira from Matosinhos and adds a curved line to the southern edge.
