This shopping center was as large and nice as anything I have seen. Interestingly, though relatively upscale, it had no large department-store anchors at all.

| Every now and then, you need something more than just experiencing breath-taking scenery, visiting museums and palaces, exploring old neighborhoods and sampling local food and drink. Your need...a shopping center! |
 |
| From the top of the old upper city, at first, I though this must be the local futbol stadium or at least the bull-fighting arena; but no, it was the very large and very nice Forum Shopping Center; so, for those of you who have always wondered what a Portugese shopping center looks like, here are some views... |
 |
| The cineplex; the whole third story is food court...nice restaurants as well as the usual... plus the cineplex and a bowling alley (let's roll, dude) |
 |
| The Portugese do ham too, though not as extravagantly as the Spanish |
 |
| Wider, escalator view |
 |
| At the Continente supermercado, the salted cod department |
 |
| Our Google-translator is still working on this large display smack in the middle of the 2nd floor of the shopping center; I am not at all certain what is going on in the depiction, but if you google "HighCareCenter" you'll see that franchises are available |
