Eduardo VII Park

Explore the stunning Eduardo VII Park from its lower entrance at Praça do Marquês de Pombal, dominated by a towering statue of the Marquis himself, Sebastião José de Carvalho e Melo. Renowned for rebuilding lower Lisbon post-1755 earthquake, the Marquis modernised Portuguese society.

Situated near hotels, banks, and public transport hubs, the square is easily accessible via an underpass from Avenida da Liberdade. This 25-hectare park hosts exhibitions, fairs, and events and features a greenhouse showcasing global flora, lakes, and remarkable statues, including a bust of King Edward VII and a monument to the 25th April Revolution by João Cutileiro. At the park's pinnacle, the Miradouro offers breathtaking vistas of Praça Marquês do Pombal, Avenida da Liberdade, and the Tejo (Tagus) River.

Opened in 1933, Estufa Fria is a captivating non-heated greenhouse boasting a diverse botanical garden with over 300 plant species sourced globally from countries like China, Australia, Peru, Mexico, Brazil, the Antilles, and Korea. Situated on grounds once occupied by an open mine, the landscape now features picturesque lakes and cascading waterfalls.

Over the years, the greenhouse has undergone numerous enhancements. In the 1940s, a lake and a spacious assembly hall were installed, followed by the addition of Estufa Quente (Hot Greenhouse) and Estufa Doce (Sweet Greenhouse) in 1975, showcasing tropical plants and cacti. Discover the lush greenery and vibrant flora within Estufa Fria, offering visitors a serene oasis in the heart of Lisbon.

Originally constructed by architects Carlos Rebelo de Andrade (1887-1971) and Guilherme Rebelo de Andrade (1891-1969) for the Rio de Janeiro Expo of 1922, this building was later transported to Lisbon and reconstructed, earning the name Palace of Exhibitions for an Industrial Exhibition held in 1932. Over the years, it has served as a venue for various cultural and sporting events, including the 1947 World Championship of Roller Hockey.

In 1984, it was renamed Pavilion Carlos Lopes in honour of the Portuguese athlete who won the gold medal in the marathon at the Los Angeles Olympics, Portugal's first-ever Olympic gold. Following a significant renovation in the early 2000s, Pavilion Carlos Lopes reopened in 2017 as a versatile venue for temporary exhibitions, events, shows, and formal dinners.
