The Expo 98 set the theme and the Vasco da Gama Shopping Center architecture continues to evoke memories of oceans and seas, recreating the environment of a large vessel inside. Designed by the architect José Quintela, the project showcases an innovative design and unique architectural features, also with an open central space from the ground floor to the ceiling.
With over 50,000 square meters of commercial area over 3 floors, the Vasco da Gama shopping mall offers a wide range of stores, as well as vast leisure and dining areas. Located in one of Lisbon’s most modern urban areas, with excellent transport connections and several businesses, hotels and residential areas, the shopping center has a prime location to become one of the most important and successful commercial destinations in the city.
Inaugurated in 1999, the shopping mall construction featured Engexpor in the project and works management, alongside the storeowners’ committee.
