Description of Experience
The Landscape as a Human Gesture
Sistelo é uma paisagem construída ao longo de séculos pela relação entre a comunidade, a terra e a água.
Socalcos, regadios e agricultura revelam uma forma colectiva de habitar o território.
We walk through the village and its surrounding landscape to observe, interpret and understand how nature, work and community remain inscribed in a singular cultural landscape.
Discover. Understand. Inhabit.
→ Each experience is a starting point. If you are looking for another way to discover the place, share your interests with us.
→ Together, we will create a proposal suited to your own pace: geral@wewantgreen.pt
