    Es empfiehlt sich, eine Richtung mit der Seilbahn zu fahren und dann zurück zu schlendern. Das komplette Expo-Gelände beginnt zwar langsam, Patina anzusetzen, aber immer noch toll

    Ein sehr schöner Ort zum verweilen und spazieren. Hier hat es ein paar gute Restaurants. Mit dem Metro zur Station Orient und dann in Richtung Teijo, ca. 5min zu Fuss. Ein grosser Shoping befindet sich hier auch in der nähe. Das Ozeanium ist ein muss, für die die es noch nie gesehen haben.

    Das Expogelände (direkt am Tejo-Ufer) von 1998 ist auch heute noch sehenswert. Das Ozeanum ist ein Traum, den man sich ansehen sollte, am besten bei schlechterem Wetter, denn man einige Stunden Zeit dort verbringen. Auch im EKZ Vasco da Gama bekommt man keine Langeweile. Beim Fahren mit der Seilbahn bekommt man einen schönen Überblick von oben über das Gelände. Nette Lokale laden zum Essen und Trinken ein, für jeden Geschmack ist etwas dabei. Die vielen Grünflächen und Wasserläufe runden das Bild ab.

    A scenic view of the Tagus River and the beautiful stretch of the Vasco Da Gama bridge was bliss. It will cost 8 Euros for a round trip, and you can reach here from Oriente Station by walk to North or South point. Neither of this ll not take more than 10-15 mins walk. Avoid if it's cloudy, as you can hardly see anything.

    I enjoyed walking on the marina, plenty of space to play and explore. The cable car was also enjoyable. Creating memories

    As a park on the banks of the river Tajo it is nice, but the sidewalks are in really bad shape. It was difficult to walk, you have to look at your feet all the time if you do not want to fall down. With strollers or wheelchair it might be too difficult

    Had a good experience riding in this. It was about 8-10 minute duration. It also offers a pretty good view of the sea.

    I wish to have so big garden to put all this palms, bambo, water into it. We walk around for some time. There are some benches so you could relaxed.

    What to say? It's an Hospital, never a good place to be at! It's an old hospital and its noticeable but you also see lots of construction work or something being fixed here and there..everywhere. Last time I took my 72yr old Mom to take an "infiltration" shot on her knee. The staff was great, best part of the hospital is the good people I crossed upon, everyone from the car park security to the Dr. that applied the shot were all very nice, efficient and fast, be prepared to walk a lot and wait a bit at the elevator doors waiting for the correct elevator to then go to the pharmacy, they wanted the patients to go from the 6th floor, to the 2nd to go to the pharmacy to pick up the medicine then return to the 6th where the doctor was waiting with a big sering in his hand and a smile on his face..😄 Other than the failed elevator system idea, old people can't use the elevators, and generally aged facilities I had no more issues. I give all 3 stars to the people working there, sorry guys but cannot give a 4 or 5 star.

    It looks like after expo 98, local government forget about this place. I wish it was one of the Lisboa visits cards, but not - it's a totally dilapidated location without any care.

    Nach der Expo ist das jetzt ein Sportpark. Etwas viel Beton, ist im Sommer sicher sehr heiß.

  • 5/5 Martyna G. 8 months ago on Google • 18 reviews
    Nice places for walk and relax

  • 5/5 Félix L. 8 months ago on Google • 12 reviews
    First and foremost is a nice area to walk with your loved ones or even by yourself at any season of the year, where besides the pleasant way you have the Tejo river in your landscape. You must enjoy the Teleférico and the Oceanário in Parque das Nações for family activities and it's surrounded by restaurants and Vasco da Gama shopping. Oriente train and subway is also closer, which makes it a great meeting spot for the summer.

  • 3/5 Bad V. 2 years ago on Google
    This garden used to be so well kept but it seems it's been a bit left and forgotten. The waters are really dirty and there are debris everywhere. It is really a shame

  • 4/5 Girish Y. 1 year ago on Google
    Quiet, not too crowded promenade- scenic by the river with lots of nice restaurants along the way.

  • 4/5 Jente W. 1 year ago on Google
    Nice garden but it can use a bit of maintenance. Ideal if you're looking for a bit of shade close to the water.

  • 5/5 Matt G. 1 year ago on Google
    Lovely views. Worth the money

  • 5/5 L F. 2 years ago on Google
    Super cool area, in the morning early around 7 I pretty much had the place for myself. In the afternoon it tend to get busier and vibey.

    Highly recommended if you are in lisbon even if for a short time. Beautiful view from the cable car. Don't miss it.

  • 5/5 Jigar P. 2 years ago on Google
    Went there for cable car experience on our visit, took a 2 way journey and got off at the other end and then went back on it. Views from top were amazing and it was quite smooth experience and not much waiting time which is ideal for tourists.
