Photographer’s Note

Hi dear TE friends

Place: Lisbon, Nations Park, Portugal

Theme: Nations Park / Sunrise (II)

To see: map view

7:57am

Another one from sunrise's serie at Lisbon's Nations Park.

I took a walk in the Lisbon's Nations Park to appreciate the Sunrise.

This picture was taken at "Parque das Nações" - a pleasent place in the city. Nations Park, located in the orient zone of the City of Lisbon.

Parque das Nações - English: Nations' Park, is a leisure, commercial and residential area in Lisbon, Portugal. It covers an extensive area in northeastern Lisbon next to the Tagus estuary, formerly used for mainly industrial purposes.
The area underwent a tremendous transformation in the 1990s when it was chosen as the location for the Expo '98 World Exhibition. After the exhibition, the area got its current name (although it is not uncommon for the Portuguese to still refer to it as "Expo"), and more transformations occurred such as the new Vasco da Gama shopping mall, the Lisbon's International Fair complex, hotels and many new office and residential buildings. Many attractions built for the Expo '98 remained and keep drawing visitors, such as the Oceanarium, one of the world's biggest aquariums.
An estimated 15.000 people currently live in the Nations' Park. (From Wikipedia)

I hope you guys like it.
