- 2. European Time In a capsule Europe lies, reclining upon her elbows: From East to West she stretches, staring, And romantic tresses fall over Greek eyes, reminding. 油 The left elbow is stepped back; The other laid out at an angle. The first says Italy where it leans; This one England where, set afar, The hand holds the resting face. 油 Enigmatic and fateful she stares Out West, to the future of the past By Fernando Pessoa Introduction

- 6. European Time In a capsule Lisbon
- 7. Lisbon is the capital and largest city of Portugal. In 1994 Lisbon was designated Europe's Cultural Capital. In 1998, Expo 98 was held in Lisbon ("The Oceans as a resource for the Future" - from May 22 to September 30, 1998). It was very appropriate that Expo 98 , whose theme was the Oceans, was held in a country whose mariners defied the sea and gave New Worlds to the world. The heart of the city is Downtown (Baixa) or city centre. There we can find the most beautiful and attractive monuments with a lot of secrets to discover.
