Rising majestically along the Tagus River in Lisbon’s Parque das Nações, the Torre Vasco da Gama stands as a testament to Portugal’s rich maritime history and contemporary architectural prowess. Initially constructed for the Expo 98 World’s Fair, this sleek tower has since become one of Lisbon’s most recognizable landmarks. Visitors can ascend the structure to reach its sky-high observation deck, which affords breathtaking vistas of the cityscape, the sparkling river, and the vast Atlantic Ocean beyond. Its strategic location also ensures that the tower is bathed in a warm golden hue during sunset, offering photographers a dreamy canvas. Modern, elegant, and steeped in significance, the Torre Vasco da Gama seamlessly blends Portugal’s storied past with its dynamic present. (Lisbon, Portugal)
