Costa Do Estoril Destination Guide Costa do Estoril Destination Guide Overview of Costa do Estoril The Estoril Coast, stretching west from Lisbon, boasts a rich past and sunny climate. It has a wide range of Blue Flag beaches and a beautiful countryside with verdant hills dropping down to the sea. Once known as the Sun Coast, the Costa do Estoril region has long been popular with expats and is dotted with beach resorts like Cascais and Estoril. Up in the hills lie the historic retreats of Mafra and Sintra. Sintra was one of the favourite summer retreats of the royal family, and there are pretty winelands in Carcavelos and Colares. Between the Sintra hills and the Atlantic Ocean is the Sintra-Cascais Natural Park, classified as a UNESCO World Heritage Site for both its natural beauty and cultural interest. On the coast, a lighthouse marks the westernmost point of continental Europe at Cabo da Roca. Additionally, Costa do Estoril was once a spa location favoured by royal exiles from Europe during the World Wars and today is the flagship of Portuguese tourism.

Page 1/6 Costa do Estoril Destination Guide Travel to Costa do Estoril Climate for Costa do Estoril The Costa de Estoril on Portugal's west coast has cold and rainy winters with warm weather between May and September. Even during the height of summer, temperatures are pleasant, seldom rising more than 80°F (27°C), and moderated by cool sea breezes. Health Notes when travelling to Portugal There are no health risks attached to travel to Portugal. A yellow fever vaccination certificate is necessary for entry for anyone travelling from an infected area and destined for the Azores or Madeira. Health facilities are good and reciprocal health agreements exist with most European countries, including the UK, whose citizens can receive low-cost emergency care at state hospitals. It is advisable that travellers obtain a European Health Insurance Card (EHIC) before travel. Dental care and repatriation costs are not covered under this agreement, and medical insurance is therefore advised. Safety Notes when travelling to Portugal Generally, safety is not a problem for travel in Portugal but there is a rising incidence of petty theft and pick pocketing in tourist areas, so reasonable care should be taken. Portugal has a very poor road safety record so exercise caution and drive defensively when exploring in a rented car. Customs in Portugal It is a legal requirement for foreigners to show some form of identification on request. Duty Free in Portugal Travellers over 17 years arriving from non-EU countries do not have to pay duty on 200 cigarettes, 100 cigarrilos, 50 cigars or 250g of tobacco; 4 litres of wine, 16 litres of beer and 1 litre of spirits over 22% or 2 litres of liquor less than 22% volume; 50g of perfume and 250ml of eau de toilette; other goods up to the value of €430 for air and sea travellers. Doing Business in Portugal Business culture in Portugal observes a strict hierarchical 'top-down' approach to management and leadership. Subordinate employees are expected to do as they are told. Strong business relationships are built on trust between colleagues, and personal connections are important. Business etiquette is formal, yet relaxed. Use titles ('Señhor' and 'Señhora') until strictly instructed not to do so, and show deference to those in obvious positions of authority. Business meetings in Portugal must be made by appointment, and should not ordinarily be scheduled for times when they might conflict with important family or religious holidays (Christmas, Easter, etc.). The dress code in Portugal is strictly smart and formal - with a strong emphasis placed on presentation. Business hours in Portugal vary, but are generally from 8.30am to 1pm, and 3pm to 6pm, from Monday to Friday. Communication in Portugal The international access code for Portugal is +351. Pre-paid sim cards can be bought at airports and used in unlocked mobile phones. Wifi is available in most hotels, cafes and some restaurants throughout Portugal. Tipping in Portugal Service charges are not usually added to hotel and restaurant bills but it is customary to leave a 10 percent tip. Bar staff and taxi drivers also expect tips, which usually entails rounding up of the bill to the nearest Euro. Passport/Visa Note All visitors, except EEA member states, must hold tickets and documents for their return or onward journey, and proof of paid accommodation (equivalent in convertible currency accepted). The borderless region known as the Schengen area includes the following countries: Austria, Belgium, Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Iceland, Italy, Latvia, Lichtenstein, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Malta, The Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain, Sweden and Switzerland. All these countries issue a standard Schengen visa that has a multiple entry option that allows the holder to travel freely within the borders of all.

  • From the Territory to the City
    1 5 th INTERNATIONAL PLANNING HISTORY SOC IETY CONFERENCE ALFRED-DONAT AGACHE URBAN PROPOSAL FOR COSTA DO SOL. FROM THE TERRİTORY TO THE CİTY. PAULA ANDRÉ*, TERESA MARAT-MENDES*, PAULO RODRIGUES** *Address: Instituto Universitário de Lisboa (ISCTE-IUL), DINÂMIA’CET-IUL, Department of Architecture and Urbanism, Av. Das Forças Armadas, 1649-026 Lisboa. Portugal. **Address: CHAIA-Centro de História da Arte e Investigação Artística da Universidade de Évora, Apartado 94,7002-554 Évora. e-mail: [email protected] - [email protected] - [email protected] ABSTRACT This paper reviews the development of Costa do Sol, as planned by architect urbanist Alfred-Donat Agache, for Lisbon Region in Portugal. The Plano Expansão Região Oeste de Lisboa (1934-1936) prepared by Agache and requested by Portuguese Minister of Public Works, Duarte Pacheco will be analyzed. This paper aims also to identify the principles and the theoretical foundations that have determined Agache urban vision for Lisbon City and its Territory. Finally, this paper aims to demonstrate that Alfred-Donat Agache methodological framework has applied Frederick Le Play socio-economic scientific approach. Such approach has informed the construction of a ‘civic’ urbanism that will be identified and analyzed. Two main goals seem to have guided Agache work at Costa do Sol: (i) the fully urban analysis of the city, throughout its social, economic, geographic and urban conditions (past and present) and (ii) the need to expose such analysis to the city’s inhabitants. Finally, this paper demonstrates Costa do Sol proposal to testify a comprehensive understanding of three distinct scales: (i) the territory; (ii) the city; (iii) but also the urban form.

  • As Eleições No Concelho De Sintra
    X Colóquio Ibérico de Geografia Évora 2005 AS ELEIÇÕES NO CONCELHO DE SINTRA PARTICULARIDADES NA ÁREA METROPOLITANA DE LISBOA Davide Miranda ( Mestrado em Desenvolvimento Regional e Local na FLUL) OBJECTIVOS DA TESE O objectivo da tese de mestrado que a seguir se apresenta é o estudo do comportamento eleitoral no concelho de Sintra, no que diz respeito às eleições autárquicas e legislativas. A escolha do concelho de Sintra tem por base a sua composição socio- económica heterogénea, tendo em atenção que este concelho apresenta dinâmicas eleitorais particularmente interessantes no contexto da Área Metropolitana de Lisboa, uma vez que para além de uma área urbana bastante densa situada ao longo do corredor urbano Queluz- Portela de Sintra, o concelho é constituído por uma extensa área rural e turísitica ainda pouco urbanizada e cujo comportamento eleitoral difere sobremaneira do continuum urbano. Para além destas duas dicotomias, existe ainda um conjunto de três freguesias constituídas por um núcleo urbano consolidado que corresponde ao centro histórico da vila de Sintra, cuja composição social particular tem como consequência um comportamento eleitoral diferente das restantes freguesias. Não se pretende neste estudo aprofundar nenhum fenómeno eleitoral em particular, como por exemplo a abstenção ou os votos nulos e brancos. O objectivo principal será fazer uma caracterização do comportamento eleitoral do concelho, com base na bibliografia portuguesa e estrangeira que se tenham debruçado sobre esta temática, no sentido de perceber se essas teorias se aplicam ao concelho em análise, bem como estudar dinâmicas decorrentes de factores endógenos particulares. Numa primeira fase deste estudo, pretende-se fazer uma abordagem geral das eleições legislativas desde 1975 até à actualidade, apresentando os principais resultados e a evolução das principais forças políticas.

As principais funções dos Bombeiros são a protecção de pessoas e bens, exercida em diversas modalidades, sendo a principal o combate e prevenção de incêndios e serviços de apoio à área da saúde.
