Entrance to the Arco da Rua Augusta viewpoint in Lisbon

Is there anything more beautiful than seeing the entire city of Lisbon from a viewpoint? What if you also do it from a monument that is a symbol of the history of Lisbon?

There are many viewpoints, but none as special as this one. Climb to the heights of the Arco da Rua Augusta viewpoint and contemplate the 360º views of the entire city and its monuments.

Your eyes will go to the impressive views that the location of this viewpoint offers us, but the architecture of this viewpoint will not go unnoticed either.

Built after the Lisbon earthquake of 1755, the Arco da Rua Augusta was built as a symbol of reconstruction after that devastating natural disaster.
The carvings of Vasco da Gama, Marquis of Pomba, Viriato, Nuno Álavares Pereira, 4 important figures who marked the history of Portugal, are distributed around this viewpoint until reaching the part top of the arch where you will see up close the sculptures that evoke courage, glory and genius.

A viewpoint that has a lot of history and that you can discover with the exhibition of the Sala do Relógio which is located inside the Arco da Rua Augusta.
