Welcome to Lisbon

A roller-coaster city of seven hills, crowned by a Moorish castle and washed in an artists pure light, Lisbon is cinematically beautiful and historically compelling. This is a capital city of big skies and bigger vistas; of rumbling trams and Willy Wonkalike elevators; of melancholic fado song and live-to-party nightlife. Edge, charisma and postcard good looks Lisbon has the lot.

Think if youve seen one aquarium, youve seen them all? Dont bank on it. Sharks, penguins on ice and somersaulting sea otters are just the tip of the marine-life iceberg at the humongous Oceanrio.
