Lisbon Cable Car: Skip The Line

During your time in Lisbon you might venture west to Belém, but make sure you don't miss out on the beauty of the city's east coast! The best way to see this part of the city is on the Lisbon cable car. During your eight-minute ride you'll travel more than a kilometer and see famous sights like the Oceanário de Lisboa, the Dock of Olivais, the ancient Vasco da Gama Tower and the Vasco da Gama Bridge. The cable car also passes over Parque das Nações – nicknamed Expo by Lisbon natives – so expect to see the Altice Arena, the Lisbon Justice Campus, Gare do Oriente and the Portugal Pavilion. These modern architectural wonders are an interesting counterpart to the city center's classical styles.
