Isiphelo simi kumda wamanzi ophuma emazantsi ezibuko, ziimitha ezingama-800 ukusuka elunxwemeni, kukwayinto entle yobunjineli.
Ijometri eyingqayizivele yesakhiwo, eneemilo ezigobileyo ezithambileyo ezikhumbuza intshukumo, ngokungathi yonke into ibumbene ngezikrini zayo zekonkrithi ezingagungqiyo kunye neendonga ezimhlophe. Ezi zikrini zekhonkrithi zinee-curvature eziphindwe kabini, kwaye ziyazixhasa izakhi zesabs.
Esi sakhiwo sine-20.000 m2 eyakhiweyo, iimitha ezingama-30 ukuphakama, kwaye sigcina igumbi elingaphantsi kunye nemigangatho emine ngaphezulu komhlaba, zonke zakhiwe njengee-slabs ezicaba. Kwifizognomy yesakhiwo, kubonakala iithayile ezimhlophe ze-ceramic ezimhlophe, zibonisa ukukhanya kwelanga, kuhlaziywa isithethe sasePortugal sokubeka iithayile kwi-facade.
Indawo yokugcina iinqanawa ihlala kwinxalenye yegumbi elingaphantsi, kumgangatho osezantsi kunye neyokuqala, kwaye iYunivesithi yasePorto yabela i-6.000 yeemitha zesikwere kwigumbi elingaphantsi, kunye nomgangatho wesithathu.
Kumgangatho wesine kukho indawo yokutyela, iholo yemiboniso, kunye nezixhobo zokufundisa kunye nophando. Umgangatho yindawo yemidlalo evulekileyo esetyenziselwa imicimbi eyahlukeneyo.
Ukusuka kwesi siphelo eLeixoes kukho iibhasi zabakhenkethi ezinxibelelana nesixeko, okanye ngeenqanawa ezincinci zokuhamba emlanjeni, ngakumbi into ehlelwe ukutyelela indawo yewayini yaseDouro.
