Trip to Oceanário de Lisboa - Part 2 | Portugal

Continuing...
Here, different exhibitions are made according to each time of the year in order to show the diversity of living beings that inhabit the oceans and demonstrating the role of each one in the balance and evolution of life on the planet.
Above all, visiting the Oceanarium is an educational experience that aims to make our planet better known by exposing an entire underwater world that would otherwise go unnoticed and at the same time awaken social responsibility for preservation and sustainability.

The Oceanário has a Mascot that since 1998 continues to be an attraction that mainly amuses children, i refer to the Vasco doll, whose name was thought of as a reference to the Portuguese navigator Vasco da Gama, which marked the history of Portugal.

Now i will focus on a more informative aspect for those who may be willing or curious to visit this place, although with new technologies all information is available within a few clicks.

How to get to Lisbon Oceanarium?
Since i do not know where you come from, it is best to have as reference that it is in Parque das Nações and inform that it is located in Doca dos Olivais. The Oriente station is the arrival point for all public transport in that region, where buses, trains and the metro (red line) arrive. The bus lines that arrive to the Oriente Station are: 5, 25, 28, 44, 708, 750, 759, 782, 794.
