If you go to the Pavilhão do Conhecimento - Ciência Viva, you will enter a time capsule and travel back in time - around 250 million years - to the past. The planet was very different from what it is today and had residents - the dinosaurs - that still generate a lot of curiosity, admiration and that challenge our imagination! It's the Return of the Giants to Lisbon. Find out what we propose for this week.

Portuguese

“Some were as small as chickens, others were giants with long necks like giraffes. Covered in scales, feathers, spines or armour, the diversity was such that, to tell you the truth, scientists discover, on average, a new species every week”. (in: https://bit.ly/3GXg7ub)

Were they good parents? How did they defend themselves? What did they eat?

Thanks to new technologies and endless hours of research by palaeontologists and scientists, many of them Portuguese, you can find answers to these and all other questions you may have in this grand exhibition, which will be open until September 2023.

Throughout this period, a whole calendar of activities will be available for kids and adults, from guided tours with researchers, workshops, field trips, and even escape rooms!

Don't miss out on this fantastic opportunity to see dinosaurs in full size and learn everything about the planet we live on. You can find all the information here.
