Step into Parque das Nações, Lisbon's modern waterfront built for Expo 98. Stroll the wide Tagus promenade past bold contemporary architecture and gardens, with the cable car and riverside views making the walk easy for all ages.
Full description
Parque das Nações was developed for the 1998 World Exhibition and remains Lisbon's showcase of modern urban planning. Wide, flat promenades run along the Tagus, lined with contemporary architecture, public art, gardens, and open plazas.
The area is clean, easy to navigate, and well suited to relaxed strolling, cycling, or a ride on the cable car that follows the waterfront. The Oceanário, the Vasco da Gama Tower, and the Vasco da Gama Bridge views give it clear landmarks.
The atmosphere is calm and spacious, a contrast to the hilly, tightly packed old quarters.
