Quinta do Lago is probably the most exclusive residential area in Portugal and its main feature is the artificial lake which inspired the name of the project.

This hand operated sluice gate controls the water getting in and out of such lake and it's located in a public area. Actually, there is a hiking trail passing here and I strongly advice a stroll in the area.
