Two Worlds United Programs in Portugal for High School students

Europeans have flocked to Portugal's extraordinary beaches and graceful palaces for years, but for the majority of students the country is a rare and wonderful surprise. Portugal has changed little over recent decades and remains largely unspoiled. In Portugal, students find warm and unaffected people, and unique sights. Ninety-two percent of all visitors to Portugal arrive in Lisbon, designated as Europe's Cultural Capital in 1995. This prompted the renovation and improvement of the city's major historic and cultural monuments, including the venerable Museum of Ancient Art, the Tower of Belém, and the Belém Monastery.  Portugal's economy made great advances through the 1970s and 1980s, and despite an economic downturn in the early '90s, it is recovering due mostly to public and private investment as well as export growth.
