The lush garden of Faculty of Fine Arts of University of Porto was created by the owner of the building, José Teixeira da Silva Braga, and his son know as “o Braguinha”. Father and son had the help of the Belgian landscaper Florent Claes - responsible for Porto Cristal Palace garden design - who introduced several rare and exotic flora species that are unique in Portugal. There you can also find some sculptures by some well know Portuguese sculptors, for example, Teixeira Lopes, Barata Feyo, Lagoa Henriques, Gustavo Bastos or José Rodrigues.
