Parque das Naçoes - Park Expo98

This park was built expressly to the world event EXPO98.
It was converted afterwards in a touristic and leisure area.
It was a non explored, not very nice and smelly area in the
oriental part of Lisbon, next to the city’s airport and it is
now, what we could call a posh zone. The Oceanarium and
Atlantic Arena are part of the new constructions on site. Cool
place to spend a nice afternoon at day time and the pubs and night
clubs open till late for you to enjoy another night spot in the city…

A short passage through Barajas in Madrid.

me to a couple of places quickly. Could see
the Town’s church and a few examples of
urban art (graffiti).
