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.

Most people rush through Oriente Station, dazzled by Calatrava’s roof or hurrying to catch a train. But if you ride the escalators up to the top level and walk toward the river, you’ll find a quiet promenade with sweeping views of the Vasco da Gama Bridge stretching for miles across the Tagus. It feels like you’ve stepped outside the city, even though you’re standing right above Lisbon’s busiest hub. Just off to the side there’s a tucked-away café overlooking the water—rarely crowded, perfect for a peaceful break.

Right next to the giant Iberian Lynx sculpture in Parque das Nações—created by street artist Bordalo II from recycled plastic—there’s a hidden spot most visitors overlook. If you turn your back to the lynx and stroll toward the Vasco da Gama Tower, you’ll find a quiet bench with a sweeping view of the Tagus and the park’s striking modern architecture. It’s a rare place where you can take in both the wild, colorful street art and the calm of the river at the same time. Hardly any tourists stop here, which makes it perfect for catching your breath or snapping a unique photo.
