Boca do Vento Elevator, Elevator and architectural structure in Almada, Portugal.
The Boca do Vento Elevator features a glass capsule that connects the River Garden to the Historic Center of Almada across a 50-meter elevation difference.
The elevator opened in June 2000 as part of Almada's infrastructure development plan to improve accessibility between different urban levels.
This transportation structure has transformed into a meeting point where residents and visitors gather to view Lisbon's skyline and the Tagus River.
The elevator operates daily from 9:00 AM to 11:00 PM, with the last trip scheduled at 10:45 PM, providing convenient access between city levels.
During the vertical journey, passengers experience an evolving perspective of Lisbon's landscape, suspended between the sky and the Tagus River waters.
