Temporarily closed (May 2024) and there doesn't seem to be much action there.

The Monsanto Panoramic Viewpoint, in Lisbon, is one of the most spectacular and least known (yet) places in the city. Located within the Monsanto Forest Park, this viewpoint, which was originally a restaurant, offers one of the best views of Lisbon, with a stunning panoramic view of the city and the Tagus River.

The building was built in 1968 by the Portuguese architect Chaves da Costa. Initially, it was a panoramic restaurant with a modern design, large windows and a spiral-shaped concrete structure, which contrasted with the traditional Portuguese style.

The restaurant was a success for several decades until its closure in 2001, when it was abandoned.

Fortunately, the Lisbon City Council saw the potential of this space and rehabilitated it, transforming it into one of the best viewpoints in Lisbon.

Super nice view over the whole city. At the same time a wonderful lost place with cool graffiti and an interesting atmosphere
