  • Jaderin Bespoke PORTUGAL
    jaderin Bespoke PORTUGAL June 15 -22 2019 Trip Notes by Joan Mahony Painting by trip participant Tan Lim Heng Painting by trip participant Tan Lim Heng The 2019 trip to Portugal by the 26 lucky Jaderin members had been planned since the previous Jaderin trip to Naoshima in December 2017. With the invaluable help of Maria Pereira de Melo Antunes (Jaderin overseas member who lives in Portugal), Patricia Chiu (Jaderin’s administrator) and Joan Foo Mahony (the erstwhile Portugal enthusiast having been to Portugal at least 5 times) got cracking to ensure that Jaderin’s Portugal Bespoke trip will be unforgettable. And, it was! Portugal is a big country blessed with great weather; the waters of the Atlantic and the Mediterranean; fabulous Port wines; scenic countryside; historic castles; medieval cities; interesting culture and food; and a friendly people to match the warmth of the Portuguese sunshine. Our trip started in Lisbon on 15th June and ended in Porto on 22nd June, a distance of around 330 km as the crow flies. But we did this leisurely, driving first north-westwards towards Obidos and Coimbra; and then north and due west along the grand vistas of the Douro Valley to Porto. 1 LISBON JUNE 15 Saturday The Lisbon visit started with the most delicious lunch at the elegant and traditional fine dining restaurant GAMBRINUS at the pedestrians only Rossio Square. There, Jaderin members had its first taste of the ‘very long lunch! We had fabulous prawns followed by a gigantic seafood risotto washed down with lots of Portuguese wine (more on Portuguese wine later) and dessert.

Known as the King of Gambling, Ho dominated gaming in the former Portuguese colony after winning a monopoly license in 1961. His SJM Holdings Ltd. flourished as China’s economic opening created a flood of new wealth in a country with a passion for gambling. SJM now controls 20 casinos on an island of about 10 square miles. “Our four families stand united in our grief and respect for his legendary accomplishments, everything he has done in life for Hong Kong, with Hong Kong, Macau and all his charitable donations,” one of his daughters said outside Hong Kong Sanatorium & Hospital. https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2020-05-26/stanley-ho-king-of-gambling-who-built-macau-dies-at-98 1/5 5/27/2020 Stanley Ho, ‘King of Gambling’ Who Built Macau, Dies at 98 - Bloomberg SJM shares rallied as investors were optimistic that the four branches of Ho’s descendants -- he had 17 children with four women -- have a plan in place following a 2019 alliance, despite earlier feuding.

  • Lisbon, What the Tourist Should See
    Fernando Pessoa Lisbon, what the tourist should see ... illustrated and geolocalized http://lisbon.pessoa.free.fr 1 of 48 What the Tourist Should See Over seven hills, which are as many points of observation whence the most magnificent panoramas may be enjoyed, the vast irregular and many-coloured mass of houses that constitute Lisbon is scattered. For the traveller who comes in from the sea, Lisbon, even from afar, rises like a fair vision in a dream, clear-cut against a bright blue sky which the sun gladdens with its gold. And the domes, the monuments, the old castles jut up above the mass of houses, like far-off heralds of this delightful seat, of this blessed region. The tourist's wonder begins when the ship approaches the bar, and, after passing the Bugio lighthouse 2 - that little guardian-tower at the mouth of the river built three centuries ago on the plan of Friar João Turriano -, the castled Tower of Belém 3 appears, a magnificent specimen of sixteenth century military architecture, in the romantic-gothic-moorish style (v. here ). As the ship moves forward, the river grows more narrow, soon to widen again, forming one of the largest natural harbours in the world with ample anchorage for the greatest of fleets. Then, on the left, the masses of houses cluster brightly over the hills. That is Lisbon . Landing is easy and quick enough ; it is effected at a point of the bank where means of transport abound. A carriage, a motor-car, or even a common electric trail, will carry the stranger in a few minutes right to the centre of the city.

    Working Paper # 602 The Effects of Cultural Heritage on Residential Property Values: 2016 Evidence from Lisbon, Portugal Sofia F. Franco Jacob L. Macdonald The Effects of Cultural Heritage on Residential Property Values: Evidence from Lisbon, Portugal Sofia F. Franco* Jacob L. Macdonald* Nova School of Business and Economics Nova School of Business and Economics Universidade Nova de Lisboa Universidade Nova de Lisboa Portugal Portugal April 30th, 2016 Abstract This paper examines the impact of historic amenities on residential housing prices in the city of Lisbon, Portugal. Our study is directed towards identifying the spatial variation of amenity values for churches, palaces, lithic (stone) architecture and other historic amenities via the housing market, making use of both global and local spatial hedonic models. Our empirical evidence reveals that different types of historic and landmark amenities provide different housing premiums. While having a local non-landmark church within 100 meters increases housing prices by approximately 4.2%, higher concentrations of non-landmark churches within 1000 meters yield negative effects in the order of 0.1% of prices with landmark churches having a greater negative impact around 3.4%. In contrast, higher concentration of both landmark and non-landmark lithic structures positively influence housing prices in the order of 2.9% and 0.7% respectively. Global estimates indicate a negative effect of protected zones, however this significance is lost when accounting for heterogeneity within these areas. We see that the designation of historic zones may counteract negative effects on property values of nearby neglected buildings in historic neighborhoods by setting additional regulations ensuring that dilapidated buildings do not damage the city’s beauty or erode its historic heritage.
