Portugal is the country of the long queue. I personally think they should put a stop to letting people in. Again 40 min in line to enter, then another 15 min per floor to go up and then down in line. Unfortunately, this takes away the enthusiasm. Beautiful view and beautiful architecture

Definitely book on line to ensure that you gain quicker entry . On arrival make sure you get in the correct queue. We still had around about 15minutes to wait due to number restrictions because of the virus. Not a great deal to see inside but the views are worth the entry .

interesting structure that deserves a visit, not so much for the interiors as for the panorama that can be seen from the various terraces, and above all from the highest one. The reservation was used to skip the queue of those who had to buy the ticket, and the wait was reduced to about half an hour (admissions are limited to small groups).
