    Most amazing spot to watch the passing parade of boats and ships on the river. Beer is served chilled, and the service was prompt. Toilets are towards the back past the kiosk. I will be back...and often

    This is beautiful place with live performance and amazing view. This place has many stones to seat on and many tree shades to avoid hot sun lights during the day. It was interesting watching people walking by while enjoying the beautiful scenery.

    Der Platz ist am Tag gut besucht. Leider die Aussicht auf die Brücke durch Baukräne versteckt. Am Abend mit Sonnenuntergang sicher besser

    This is a beautiful public space with wonderful views over the Tagus river and the houses below, specially so at sunset. Although the official name of this space is Jardim/Miradouro de Santa Catarina, many call it Adamastor, after the statue of the sea monster that is said to have tormented the Cape of Good Hope. The Jardim of Santa da Catarina includes a small tree shaded area with a kiosk and a bare stone paved area around the statue of Adamastor and facing south. Big stone blocks contain the slope and serve as sitting space. The recent design of the space is the result of a project from 2013 by Landscape office PROAP, that aimed at solving the several issues of rundown 19c design: a structurally fragile and tall fence, the difficult maintenance of the portuguese calçada, and the over stepping on the grass and green areas for lack of sitting places which created a dusty environment. This design change enraged some Lisboners who, with time, got used to the new design. CCTV cameras were also added for the sake of safety. The crowds that one finds here are very bohemian, with music being played during the day, and people lingering, drinking and chatting throughout the night. There are also other coffee options nearby as alternative to the crowded kiosk. The surrounding palaces and houses, the unexpected spectacular view and the silence of cars that this garden/belvedere offers makes this a very unique and special place to visit in Lisbon.

    jeden Abend ein musikalischer Künstler. Nebenbei ein Kiosk für Bier etc. Junge Menschen die den Sonnenuntergang bewundern und einfach die Stimmung genießen. Ein Traum.

    Wunderbarer Aussichtspunkt, egal ob tagsüber oder abends beim Sonnenuntergang. Für Planespotter interessant, die Einflugschneise liegt dort. Man kann Flugzeuge gut beobachten

    My favorite place in Lisbon. There is an amazing sunset, with cheap and great sangria with a gorgeous view. During the summer it is very worthy a visit!
