BON LISBON - After
tracing Portuguese influences for decades across Asia, Africa and Latin America,
a travel writer finally gets a taste of the real thing - and falls
in love with Lisbon.
ASIAN MUSEUM - For
centuries, Portugal pioneered a path across Asia, exposing Europe to the wonders
of the East. Now, two decades in the making, a new museum explores the legacy of
those early links, as Europe's top new Asian art museum
opens in Lisbon.
