Information

The tent landscape at the top of the Ria Shopping shopping center still exists, but unfortunately it has lost its function as a 'food square'.

As a cover for the food square, it had the appearance of a large circus tent with its masts, steel cables and interconnected domes. It was a large covered outdoor terrace under a tent roof, with glass walls that gave shelter from rain and wind.

It also had an uncovered outdoor terrace with a nice view over sub-urban Olhão. Unfortunately, the new owner of the shopping center has changed it into an AL (Alojamento Local) and the "public" character of this beautiful floor with outdoor terrace has been lost.
