Parque das Nações: riverfront built after Expo '98
Parque das Nações was built for Expo '98 on former industrial land and remains Lisbon's newest large district, with wide blocks, a cable car and the Vasco da Gama bridge nearby.
Coverage across the whole city of Lisbon.
This area is part of our tobacco shop delivery in Lisbon.
What the area is like
Large scale blocks
Blocks here are considerably larger than in the historic centre, with wide pavements and set-back buildings.
Oceanário and the cable car
The Oceanário de Lisboa sits at the southern end, with a cable car running along the riverfront towards the Torre Vasco da Gama.
Gated residential towers
Many residential buildings are newer towers with a staffed entrance and controlled access.
Altice Arena and MEO Arena events
The Altice Arena hosts concerts and conferences that bring extra movement to the area on event days.
Getting around
- Gare do Oriente combines metro, train and bus, at the southern edge of the district.
- Flat, continuous bike lanes run the length of the riverfront.
- Distances between the station and the northern end of the district are longer than in the older, denser neighbourhoods.
- Pavements are wide, with fewer traffic restrictions than in the historic centre.
Typical hours
Morning
Commuter flow through Gare do Oriente.
Afternoon
Quieter on weekdays, busier at weekends near the Oceanário and the riverfront.
Evening
Riverside restaurants stay active; event nights at the Altice Arena bring extra crowds.
At night, 7pm to 5am
The riverside walkway and the shopping centre area stay lit, but the district empties after the last events at the arena. Distances are long and the blocks look alike at night, so the entrance detail matters more here than almost anywhere.
How to describe your location here
Give the building name or lot, the entrance and the floor, not just the street. Oriente station, the Vasco da Gama centre, the Altice Arena and the Oceanário split the area into parts everyone recognises.
How delivery works here
To order from Parque das Nações, message us on WhatsApp with the tower, floor and entrance name, since many buildings here have controlled access.
