It’s easy to get the ferry to Cacilhas and then the bus 101 up to the statue. The park is a peaceful setting with great views of Lisbon and close up to the statue - a good place for a picnic - or you can ride the lift up to the viewing platform for the best views of Lisbon and the Iconic Bridge. Even if you don’t like heights there are very high railings and you will feel safe. There are quite a few narrow steep steps to climb so going to the viewing platform would be difficult for anyone with mobility issues. This is a religious place and there is a prayer room and a chapel for those who want it, but non religious folk are made to feel welcome too.

Very nice frigate largely restored allowing a nice visit and providing a nice experience. Travelling from Lisbon by boat is easy, cheap and very interesting as Lisbon provides a excellent view.

This is a really wonderful area to visit. It is primarily a place to visit so you can get some breathtaking views of the city of Lisbon. There are some good places to stop and eat or drink. There are cafes and lots of restaurants and other shops too. The major attraction is the National Monument to Cristo Rei (Christ the King), which is an enormously tall statue made of concrete. It was copied from the Brazilian Christ the Redeemer! It symbolises Portugal's good fortune not to suffer badly during World War II. Worth a visit.

Relax, breath, walk, go jogging, get rid of the stress. Parque da Paz is a great place to visit while in Margem Sul. Well structured and clean!

Although there is plenty of parking around, I can tell you right now it'll go fast! Get here early in the morning! There are umbrellas for hire in some locations, but I don't know the price. This beach has surveillance and lifeguards! There's plenty of restaurants at the side of the beach as well. All these beaches are connected so there's plenty of space even during the pandemic. Plenty of space for everyone to easily apply social distancing. Only problem will be the parking... Highly recommended!

Me and my girlfriend found this elevator almost by mistake while taking a walk on the docks of Almada. Great view of Lisbon, Cristo Rei and the river from the top and free of charge!
