hits hard seeing a whole building turned into pink signs while one guy just tries to keep his culture alive. it’s like the soul of the city is being sold to the highest bidder. really powerful photo but so depressing at the same time.
Both Lisboa and Porto are like that, all the buildings downtown being transformed to appeal tourism. When all the locals are gone from the traditional neighborhoods it will be tourists looking at other tourists. In a decade the country went from bankruptcy to a touristic Disneyland and all the economic boom is pricing us out and leaving us worse off
