As well as find
listed in other answers, better shells allow both recurvsive globs and filtering of glob matches, so in zsh
for example...
ls -lad **/*(/)
...lists all directories while keeping all the "-l" details that you want, which you'd otherwise need to recreate using something like...
find . -type d -exec ls -ld {} \;
(not quite as easy as the other answers suggest)
The benefit of find is that it's more independent of the shell - more portable, even for system()
calls from within a C/C++ program etc..
