What people say

"Located in Belém next to the Museu de Marinha and the Mosteiro dos Jerónimos, the Planetário de Marinha was opened in 1965 and regularly holds promotional sessions, a way of bringing astronomy closer to the general public. Refurbished in 2004, the Planetarium has modern equipment equipped with a central projector, planet, sun, panoramic and allsky projectors. It is thus possible to present more than 9,000 stars in both celestial hemispheres, as well as the Milky Way, stellar clusters and nebulae, and also the figures of the constellations and auxiliary teaching lines. Among others, regular sessions are promoted in various languages, special exhibitions for children and presentations related to certain times of the year. Complementing this space, there is also a Library with around 1,000 titles and the Comandante Conceição Silva Observatory, with observation equipment that is commonly used by amateur astronomers."

Mentioned in these guides

You know the exercise of planning what to visit in a city by searching online "what to do in XXXX" and opening 10 tabs in an attempt not to let anything escape? And then not fully understanding what were the most relevant things for your kind of traveller? Well, I've been there multiple times!!! That's why I though that, as a local in Lisboa who has explored everything this city has to offer, I can make things easy for someone planning to visit it by creating a single source of information with all that. 86 places split into categories to make navigation and priorization easy: 1. Lisboa-exclusive places you must go to (3 tiers according to relevance) 2. Places around Lisboa you should visit (includes Sintra, Almada and Mafra) 3. Hidden gems (again 3 tiers according to relevance) 4. Old trams / Elevators / Funiculairs (you can be a fan and go around all of them or simply pick the best ones, which I refer) 5. Viewpoints (again, either go to all of them or just my top picks) 6. Things you can do around the world and here are nice as well On top of that you've got the ultimate Portuguese food checklist with 45 things you shoult try and whithout which your trip will be incomplete (90% of them can be found in Lisboa) My main objective with this guide is not to go into detail about each of these attractions but rather to categorize and give some hints about it so you decide whether to put it on your plan or not. If it is a monument or museum requiring a deep explanation of the hitory around it, you'll find it there. In case you have any question while planning your trip, we can also make a quick call for free ;) I wish you enjoy this city as much as I do and please do send me a message with feedback on this guide, as I use that to improve on it.
