    Beneath the feet of everyone who visits the city of Lisbon, Portugal, lie hidden gems - floor mosaics made with limestone.
    Legend has it that in the 1500s, a rhino sent from India, and the first ever seen in Europe, jumpstarted the Portugal pavement art tradition.
    True or not, the fact is that this art form may be close to disappearing.

Poor Ganda. They should have let him stay in Portugal where he was treated like a king. But I guess he lives on as a part of the Tower Of Belem. 💖 Calceteiros, don't let this beautiful art die.

Fantastic, how unknown was the world for the Europeans in the XVth and XVIth century. I will never understood those persons that criticize the Discoveries Age, like the world just a few killometers further the tightened limits of any small village, would be unknow and interested forever!!! Like ignorance was a good thing to preserve...

Those pavements are highly dangerous: old people, people in wheelchairs and people with babies prefer to walk in the road

Low salaries for the Calceteiros only in Portugal !!! A lot (believe me, a lot) left the country and earn much more in Spain, France, Germany, Luxembourg, Italy, Belgium, Canada, US, etc.

Ainda bem. Deveriam acabar com a horrível calçada portuguesa e juntar a isso o fado.

É impressão minha ou o Isaltino (CMO) detesta calçada portuguesa? Sempre que fazem obras nas ruas o gajo tira a calçada

@suevialania Mostly in rich private places (homes, hotels, private companies and a few touristic places). More outside Portugal, Brasil and former colonies is very expensive.
