ELEVADOR DE SANTA JUSTA:

Elevador de Santa Justa (Santa Justa Lift), a historical neo-gothic steel elevator tower that was designed by one of Gustav Eiffel’s pupils. It is 45m high and opened in 1899, the only remaining vertical elevator. On the top there is an observation deck and a walkway that pass over the street. Even if the lift is large (there is one that goes down and one up), it doesn't take many people. Thus the waiting line is often long, we waited more then one hour in low season. From the top the views are great. The elevator leads from the lower town, Baixa Pombal, to the upper town - the small square Largo de Camo in the Chiado district.
