Quinta Pedagógica dos Olivais — Attraction in Lisbon

In the middle of Olivais, almost hidden between the buildings, a place to learn lives: the Quinta Pedagógica dos Olivais, where everybody can see and learn how farm animals live. There's chickens, roosters, cows, a beautiful white horse, donkey, turkeys, peacocks and other animals that you don't see in a city. It's a great learning experience: you can see how vegetables grow, identify fruit trees and enjoy a great time in a place designed to show how a farm with animals can be. Parking is easy and the place is entrance free; there's a kiosk to buy ice-cream or other beverages (great for those warm days) and there's space enough to make a nice picnic, in the company of the animals. Place is very clean and there's bathroom as well.

A great place...

We went to this park today with only one purpose, because they have "árvore das chuchas". It happen that we took with us our small bichon puppy (1kg) sleeping on the sling carrier and because of that were not allowed to enter - in a rude manner. Not even one sign or any text at the door saying that pets are not allowed. This is OK and I can understand that pets are not allowed in some places, What I cant understand is the rudeness of the coffee person that the moment we entered came with no manners telling us to leave, same happened with the security guard. I was with a dog and a child I'm a citizen deserving respect and ...not contagious to be asked out...

The Quinta Pedagógica dos Olivais is an excellent option for those looking to escape the hustle and bustle of the city and experience the tranquility and charm of country life. With free admission, educational activities and a welcoming atmosphere, it is an ideal place for families, schools and anyone who enjoys nature and rural culture. In addition to the animals, the Quinta has vegetable gardens, orchards, greenhouses and kennels for dog adoption, providing a complete immersion in rural life. There are also spaces for relaxation, such as benches and shaded areas, making the visit comfortable...
