Almada

Almada is a port city on the southern bank of the Tagus River, extending across a large area and comprising several neighborhoods. It sits directly opposite Lisbon and forms an important part of the metropolitan region.

People settled in this area thousands of years ago, as archaeological finds from early societies show. The place developed over time into an important location in the region's life.

The Theatre Festival brings performances across different venues throughout the year, where national and international artists present their work. These events shape the city's character and draw people together for shared experiences.

The April 25 Bridge and regular ferry services from Cacilhas terminal provide direct connections to Lisbon every day. When planning a visit, it helps to check the available routes to find the best way to explore the area.

A large green space with gardens and sports facilities offers room for recreation and outdoor activity. This green area is where local residents spend time and where visitors can discover another side of the city.
