REYES-CORREDERA, Sergio    SILVA, Paulo. Representation of the landscape in tile panels at stations and train stops in the Metropolitan Area of ​​Porto and surroundings. []. , 47, pp.211-234.   29--2023. ISSN 2182-3030.  https://doi.org/10.15847/cct.29634.

Train stops on the Portuguese state network are a reference to the country's heritage. Their architecture is an invitation in many cities and towns not only to make a journey, but also to understand the territory and the cities where they are located. Many of these spaces can be the first stop of a tourist visit and a space of reflection to understand the evolution of the nearby geographical space and of the one further away. This methodological proposal offers a reading where the landscapes and cultural elements represented in their tile panels are identified, catalogued and interpreted from the perspective and understanding of railway architecture and the designs and forms of artistic expression used for the representation of Portuguese landscapes. For this research, the urban train network of the city of Porto (Portugal) was used due to its quantity and variety of elements for its study.
