Cabo Ruivo Metro Station, Lisbon
Entrance to the station |
Cabo Ruivo Metro Station is on the Red Line of the Lisbon metro network. The station is close to the upmarket Parque Das Nações district on Avenida Pádua. The area around the station is within easy walking distance of several good hotels and is close to many restaurants near the Tagus waterfront.
In fact, the area is perfect if you have an early morning flight at Lisbon Airport. Additionally, it is a little away from the hustle and bustle, and occasional seediness, of Oriente Station.
The metro station opened in 1998 in time for the EXPO'98 of that year.
The station lies on the busy Avenida Pádua |
