At the edge of Lisbon stands a tower built for departures.
From here, explorers sailed into oceans that appeared blank on their maps.
Centuries later, Portugal is still chasing the unknown.
Not across the Atlantic, but across forests, mountain ranges, and the fragile boundary between extinction and survival. There is a ghost haunting the hills above Lisbon. 🐆🇵🇹
The Iberian lynx was down to 94 individuals on the entire planet. Scientists called it the world's most endangered cat. Portugal called it a national emergency.
This is the Lisbon that City Pulse takes you into. Because the most fascinating journeys aren't always the ones that happened in the past.
