Would you like to have a change of scene while in Lisbon? Or maybe you’re just looking for some shade on a hot summer day? I really love to change the urban setting to a natural environment once in a while. That’s why I think photo shoot in the Estufa Fria could be a great idea, especially if you’d love to add a fresh vibe to your photos 🌱

The Estufa Fria is a greenhouse and garden located near Lisbon’s Parque Eduardo VII (Eduardo VII Park). These tropical gardens create a calm oasis in the central busy area of Lisbon. The Estufa Fria contains plants and trees from different continents around the world, such as Australia, Australia, Brazil, Korea, Mexico and Peru. There is also the Estufa Quente where heat-loving plants grow and tropical birds flutter 🙂  Just wander along these jungle paths, with exotic plants, beautiful ponds  and waterfalls, and enjoy some peace and tranquility. Besides photo shoot in Estufa Fria, we can also use the beautiful area of Parque Eduardo VII since the whole space is truly gorgeous!

Photo shoot in Estufa Fria (details)

All the important information can be found directly on the website. But if you can’t read Portuguese, I’d leave some details here. The opening hours are from 10:00 till 19:00 in summer, and from 09:00 till 17:00 in winter. The general admission is 3.10 Euros and it’s free on Sundays and public holidays.

There are different events and concerts occasionally happening in the Estufa Fria. To check the current programme, press here.

By the way, if it’s your first portrait session, check this post where I share some tips that might help you to prepare for it properly 🙂

m: Laís Q.

“What is the meaning of life?

That was all- a simple question;

one that tended to close in on one with years,

the great revelation had never come.

The great revelation perhaps never did come.

Instead,

there were little daily miracles,

illuminations,

matches struck unexpectedly in the dark;

and here was one.”

#V. Woolf
