| dc.description.abstract | The consequence of its geographical position the city of Lisbon has developed a close relationship with the river (Tagus river) and the sea (Atlantic Ocean). Portugal was one of the pioneering nations in the Sea Discoveries (intensive maritime exploration mainly during the 15th century). Lisbon was the port of departure for these adventures. This fact early conditioned the relationship of the city with the river and the sea, and organized the city waterfront as a space mostly devoted to economic activity and commercial trading. With the development of tourism in Europe, Portugal has established itself as a major European destination and Lisbon, as result of its historical heritage, an important city-break destination. In this conversion process Lisbon has reinvented its relationship with the river. The waterfront has been taken as a strategic point of tourism attraction and development. In this context, nautical tourism has assumed particular prominence, both as a tourism product, and also associated with major international yachting events which have put Lisbon in world news. | por |
