Situated in the Vilarinha area of Porto, the Soundwich Entrance is located in a zone characterized by the transition between the urban environment and extensive green spaces. This location places it in a strategic position, offering an access point to one of the city's largest and most significant natural areas.

The Soundwich Entrance serves as one of the gateways to the vast and lush City Park. This park, a true green lung of Porto, offers walking paths, open spaces, and a diversity of flora and fauna.

The name "Soundwich" suggests a curious convergence of elements. It can be interpreted as a space where different "layers" of experiences meet. Perhaps it alludes to the intertwining of urban sounds that dissipate as one moves towards the silence and melody of nature emanating from the park.
This concept of fusion makes the Soundwich Entrance more than just a point of passage. It makes it a symbolic place, where the city's dynamism blends with the tranquility of the green, inviting a reflective pause before or after immersing oneself in Porto's natural landscape.
