ERLEBNISSE

Eduardo VII Park is a public park located in Lisbon, Portugal. The park is named after King Edward VII of the United Kingdom, who visited the city in 1902. Spanning over 19 acres of land, it is one of the largest and most popular green spaces in Lisbon.

The park was originally designed for Kings Manuel II and Carlos I by French architect Jean-Antoine Alavoine at the beginning of the 20th century. It was opened to the public on 2 June 1910, 6 months after Edward’s visit to Lisbon. Later renovations were made to expand its size and improve its grounds and facilities. Today, Eduardo VII Park houses stunning gardens with vibrant flowers, sculptures, fountains and ponds that attract visitors from all walks of life. Starting from the Avenida da Liberdade side, wander up the park and you’ll find, among its beautiful trees and statues, a hothouse filled with exotic plants and botanic gardens for you to explore. It also has several cafes offering refreshments as well as a mini zoo featuring exotic animals such as deer and llamas.
