Traveler reviews
T.
★★★★★a month agoHalf Rabbit by Bordalo II is cool street art and easy to find. I didn’t know beforehand that it’s made from recycled and upcycled junk materials, which is actually the artist’s signature style, so if you don’t know that going in, you might not even notice it. Worth looking up first so you can appreciate the detail.

★★★★★6 months agoA quirky piece of street art right next to the Port Wine cellars. Drop by if you're in the area for a wine tour. There's also an interesting local square few steps away from here, with an imposing local church. Great for a nice walk around.
