Housed in a vast riverside warehouse inspired by Portugal’s shipyards, World of Discoveries blends dramatic staging, soundscapes, and full-scale sets to recreate the spirit of the Age of Exploration.

Features:

  • Immersive exhibition spaces: Walk through large-scale, theatrical exhibition rooms where full-size sets, projections, and soundscapes recreate ports, ships, and newly discovered lands.

  • Stories of real explorers: Follow the journeys of explorers like Vasco da Gama and Magellan through narrative-driven installations that explain why these voyages mattered, not just where they went.

  • Themed boat journey: Board a moving boat and sail through recreated continents and cultures, with sound, visuals, and audio narration bringing Portugal’s discoveries to life in 22 minutes.
