In the city center, you'll make a brief stop to visit Eduardo VII Park, located at the top of Avenida da Liberdade, which offers an excellent panoramic view of the city. Originally called Parque da Liberdade (Liberty Park), it was renamed after the King of England when he visited Lisbon in 1903. Since its inception, this park has been the venue for fairs, exhibitions and entertainment.
On the observation deck, there is a monument commemorating the 1974 revolution for freedom.
