A show in a historic location

In the past, it served as a hunting reserve for the Portuguese royal family; today, it is home to the campus of the Instituto Superior de Agronomia.

In this area, the gardens, arboretums, agricultural areas, and a viewpoint with a sweeping view of Lisbon and the Tagus River stand out. But that’s not all—the venue chosen to host the“DroneArt Show: Four Seasons” alsoholds a true hidden treasure: the century-old Astronomical Observatory.
