This aquarium was fantastic! I loved the flow of it, where there's one naturtal pathway that leads…read moreyou from the start to the finish. We started at the top floor through a special exhibit which was beautiful, and then worked our way down. You'll pass penguins and waterfalls, you can go over a wooden bridge through a little tropical feeling forest, and onto the playful otters. Then you'll continue around passing the giant central tank. As you descend, you'll get additional looks at the tank and different viewpoints like watching the penguins dive below the water. This is the first aquarium to capture my son's delight, but I also think he's just turned the corner on appreciating animals (or at least sea life). Our toddler daughter also enjoyed it very much! We all did. We don't typically book into zoos or aquariums unless they are top in the world, and this aquarium was very highly rated, so I was very happy we came. It was a perfect attraction for our family, but I also would have been happy I came even if this was a trip without kids. With kids? A slam dunk. You can add a gondola ride onto your aquarium ticket which we did. We booked the roundtrip gondola and our kids enjoyed the experience. I wouldn't say it's a must do, but it's not terribly expensive and if you have kids, they'll like this experience too. If you're up for a packed day, you can do the science museum which is next door as well. I read it's a very interactive hands on museum but we had to get back that day. The aquarium is a half day experience. I think we there for 2.5 hours.

Its a pretty small aquarium. 2 different buildings. You have the main building with the…read moreentrance, the gift shop and the coffee and food court area. But the actual aquarium is in another building that requires you take a walkway to get to. Its organized well, adound the central aquarium. Its a massively large center aquarium. Multiple viewing windows. 2 floors. And many many types of fish in there. From the different sting rays and manta rays, to some sunfish, to multiple sharks. And many many other fish from little ones to really big ones. I could've spent hours and hours just watching them swim around. But with so many people trying to get the best views its best to keep it moving. Around that center aquarium they have many exhibits and tanks. From the arctic with the penguins to the tropical with the tropical fish and corals to the pacific and everything in between. There's a lot of fish and aquatic animals to look at and take pictures and videos of. Also theres informational rooms and even a room to watch a video (with seating). Lots of placards around giving some information on what your seeing. So many beautiful and exotic creatures here. You basically start off on the 2nd floor, work your way around in a circle, go down the stairs, do another circle and then take the walkway back to the main building. I didnt know once you go down stairs you cant go back upstairs. Basically a one way walk. I wish I knew that so I could've spent more time upstairs viewing the aquarium from up there. So that was a very big disappointment. Also once you go into the main aquarium you can go back to the beginning of the main building. There was some pretty cool monsters of the deep exhibit in the main building but because we went to the aquarium first we missed that part of the exhibit. With a lisboa card you get 15% off your ticket price. Booking it online you get 5% off. But we bundled the aquarium ticket with the telecabine ride. So lisboa card doesnt work with that. This is a pretty small aquarium by aquarium standards. We easily spent 2-3 hours viewing all the exhibits and animals. Could've easily spent some more time here. It was really nice to see divers in the big tank cleaning responsibly and feeding the sunfishes and other animals. It was a nice little experience to spend a couple hours of your day at. Cool exhibits. Like the different zones of it. We'll maintained. Fun experience for people of all ages!

We booked to stay at a hotel nearby, and when I saw the words Parque das Nações, I presumed, not…read moreincorrectly, that it means national park. So I was looking for a big swath of greenery and dense wood... and found none. After my Yelp check in, I learned that this used to be an expo location that has been converted to an urban open space for people to chill. It's a nice spot actually, you can walk along the river and enjoy some nice views, although my husband's plan of a daily morning run never materialized, as all the walking in Lisbon took a toll on the legs. Nonetheless, the view is beautiful, and the sculptures along the walk are intriguing. There are plenty of restaurants, as well as some structures that look like concert halls, and at one end there is the shopping center.

Lisboa is known for its old-world charm that is apparent all throughout the city yet this area is…read morenew to the northeastern part of the city and while it's not a green park, it's also not to be skipped. Overlooking the water, it's an open area surrounded by flag staffs and concrete pavers leading to the bay. It's right next to the Vasco Gama Center which has a lot of foot traffic resembling a metropolitan skyscraper-filed zone with plenty of city appeal. If you're looking to hug a tree, you should look elsewhere. If you're into open areas where people can gather and stroll around, this might be your spot. My feet were on fire from climbing all those hills up and down all day so I was actually thrilled to see flat terrain for once...and so were my feet. There's nice sculptures and fresh breeze to soak in while overlooking the boasting new metropolis in Lisboa.
