Foundation Champalimaud
Restelo, Lisbon
"A two-minute walk from Belém Tower. It has a beautiful outdoor area to relax by the river and a fancy indoor restaurant called Darwin’s."
Less than a five-minute walk from Belém Tower sits the abstract-looking Foundation Champalimaud. Straddling the river, a fun activity is to bring a kick scooter along (you can hire electric scooters around the city) and cruise along the promenade. The building design is eccentric, with geometric-shaped walls and windows decorating the facade. Watch sailboats on the water from this beautiful outdoor space. Inside the education and research center is Darwin’s Café — inspired by the British naturalist himself.
