Vasco da Gama Bridge

Highlight • Bridge

North of the Parque das Nações, the Vasco da Gama Bridge swings elegantly over the Tejo: 17.2 km long (of which 12 are over the water), clear height 45 m (maximum where the cable-stayed bridge is; otherwise it is much flatter over the water), longest span 420m. Before the Crimean Bridge was completed in 2019, it was the longest bridge in Europe

Vasco da Gama Bridge

Highlight • Bridge

The Vasco da Gama Bridge is officially the second-longest bridge in Europe at 17.2 km (10.6 miles). Adding the 12.345 km (7.64 miles) of structural bridgework to the 4.84 km (3.91 miles) of roadwork, the road concept for this Tagus River crossing results in a route length of 17.185 km (10.66 miles). The maximum span is 420 meters (139 feet), and the pylons are 155 meters (510 feet) high. The A12 motorway crosses the bridge with six lanes.

Homem-Sol Sculpture by Jorge Vieira

Highlight • Monument

The Sun Man is a monumental sculpture by Jorge Vieira. At approximately 20 meters high and weighing 15 tons, it is an anthropomorphic structure inspired by the sun.

This work is considered a kind of testamentary synthesis of the author's oeuvre, a symbiosis of surrealism and abstraction with three-dimensional exploration.

Jorge Ricardo da Conceição Vieira was born on November 16, 1922, in Lisbon and died in 1998 in Évora.
