The remains of this ancient theater are a reminder of how long Lisbon has stood. The exhibit is very large, but does its job well. We get a sense of how much Lisbon has been through under Roman rule. I walked away from the site wondering how much more history lies buried beneath the city.

Both haunting and joyful these marvellous woman bring a slice of suffering and a slice of transcendent happiness in their exploration of women working. A lament, a work ritual, an explosion of joy, a wild dance - it's all as astringent and glorious as an olive, with drumming, accordion, strings, close harmonies and dancing. Beautiful.

Great compact Roman excavation museum with nice descriptions in both Portuguese and English. A nice surprise we stumbled upon.

The main site of the theater ruins are viewable, free of charge, via the walkway constructed around the protected site. Like the museum across the lane (3€), the modern preservation and installations are minimal in style and use architectural outlines to provide the former scope and scale for visitors. The museum features excavation of the centuries of building and expansion over this site, while also housing artifacts spanning all the epocs of human settlement on the hills of Lisbon.

Amazing museum that shows the remains of 1st century CE Roman amphitheater. You can actually touch all those 2000 year old stones. Ask the worker there and they might give you a tour. They appreciate a tip afterwards.
