“Caminho da Costa”, meaning “path along the coast”, was the name given to this riverside area for the Lisbon World Exhibition in 1998, since its proximity to the river allows permanent visual contact with the water element. Fully pedestrianized and wooded with Portuguese stone pines, this area offers inviting shades which are ideal for sitting back, reading and other leisure activities.
