🇵🇹 Lisbon | Lisbon Earthquake Museum 🏛️💥😱🌍✨🔥

Originally just ducked in to escape the rain ☔, but this unassuming museum BLEW MY MIND! 🤯 No wonder it wins all those TripAdvisor awards 🏆 Almost didn't get in without reservation - had to beg the ticket lady who finally checked with her manager! 🙏 The 1755 earthquake DESTROYED Lisbon 💔 Right when Portugal ruled Europe through gold/silk/porcelain trade 💰👑 and religious fervor was at its peak ⛪. The All Saints' Day quake flattened everything, indirectly sparking the Enlightenment 🌅 and city redesign. The museum uses 4D time-travel tech ⏳🚀: • Each room has immersive storytelling 🎧 • You'll "sit" in wooden church pews that start VIOLENTLY shaking! 💺🌋 • See the cathedral CRUMBLE while smelling incense & feeling heat from fires! 👃🔥 Plus exhibits on San Francisco & Japan quakes 🇺🇸🇯🇵 with detailed survival guides. Best €20 ever spent! 💸👍 #LisbonTravel #EarthquakeMuseum #PortugalTourism
