Teleférico do Parque das Nações

Teleférico do Parque das Nações is an aerial cable system with open cabins spanning across the Tagus River with varying heights. Multiple support towers and cabins move continuously, connecting northern waterfront areas and offering views of the river and surrounding spaces.

The system was built for the 1998 World Exposition in Lisbon as a temporary attraction. It proved so popular that it became a permanent fixture of the district's transportation network.

The journey reveals modern Portuguese buildings and the way the district was redesigned after the 1998 Expo. Visitors can see how the Tagus riverfront became a place for recreation and contemporary culture.

The ride takes several minutes and is a smooth experience as cabins move slowly across the river. It is easy to board and exit, making it possible to visit at your own pace without time pressure.

The cabins have open sides, creating the sensation of floating freely above the river. This design choice makes the experience more direct, as nothing blocks the views between you and the water below.
