The story
Bento climbed up to a viewpoint to watch Porto say goodbye to the sun.
Ahead of him, the Dom Luís I bridge and the Douro glowed with the last colours of the day.
When night came, he lit the little lantern he had brought to find his way back.
He stayed to admire the lights coming on, one by one, across the city.
Without noticing, his little lantern had become one more light over Porto.
Notice
Dusk turns the sky violet. A lantern is lit on the wall, and the boats rest below.
