its first store in Vila Nova de Gaia in 2019 Mercadona has grown significantly in Portugal with more than 50 stores across the country Free parking in Lisbon is becoming increasingly difficult But we've discovered some places where you can still leave your car without paying a penny before going to work Lisbon is a city known for its heavy traffic but we can’t even say that there are so few places to park… for a fee because there are fewer and fewer free ones the city does offer some free parking options both in specific areas and in dedicated parks At Lisboa Secreta we know that the places where you usually park are either always full or are about to become yet another paid parking lot when we can’t park for free in Lisbon we’ve discovered some secret spots where you can still park for free before going to work But if you live in areas closer to Lisbon and don’t need four wheels to get to work because you even have to take the kids to nursery or school you can also use these tips to park for free in the city From what we’ve consulted on the planning maps of the company that manages parking in Lisbon some of these places can become outdated from one day to the next To give you a better idea of the free parking spots we’ve found in Lisbon we’ ve divided the city into five zones: namely their proximity to Lisbon’s most used public transport: metro some of these areas may require you to walk for a few minutes to find a metro station or bus stop But this can also be solved by opting for one of the mobility solutions scattered throughout the city, from scooters, bicycles or car and motorcycle sharing services the main parking lot manager in Lisbon already occupies a large part of the central area of the city leaving a few free parking spaces for areas further away from the center But let’s leave these discussions for other pages and get down to business Let’s start with the easternmost part of Lisbon and one of the city’s newest areas Although it ‘s very difficult to find free parking in the center of Parque das Nações there are some very interesting alternatives very close to public transport in this case the Sacavém train station and bus stops Near Sacavém train station there are a few parking lots where you can leave your car and then take the train or bus to the city center Here you can leave your car near the Parque do Rio urbanization The park is at the end of Via do Oriente and Passeio dos Heróis do Mar 📍Coordinates On your way to Parque das Nações from the south to the north if you go along the waterfront you’ll come across the Santa Apolóniatrain station and finding a parking space can be a challenge If you’re not one of the first to arrive So our suggestion is that you arrive at one of these places between 07h45 and 08h15 you’ll probably be scrambling around until you find a seat 📍Coordinates Rua Luís de Camões is one of the few streets where you can still see cars parked on the sidewalk In the parallel streets you’ll be able to find free parking without too much trouble If you can’t find a space as soon as you arrive in this well-known neighborhood we guarantee that you’ll have a parking space within 5-10 minutes But for that you’ll have to be in the area between 8.45 and 9.15am when the locals also drive to work in their cars and leave the spaces vacant 📍Coordinates you’re sure to find your parking space in the sun The area is very well served by public transport with trains and buses to almost every part of Lisbon you may have to park a little away from these stops otherwise take the opportunity to rent a scooter or bicycle along the way 📍Coordinates The Benfica area is the furthest away from the city center But that doesn’t mean you can’t find your free parking space in Lisbon there’s plenty of public transport you can take from here You’ll find free parking in all areas of Benfica but with the train station right next door it’s very difficult to get a parking space 📍Coordinates But the truth is that public transport is still not the ideal solution for those who want to get from place A to place B as comfortably and quickly as possible Lisbon can be a more pleasant place for people to move around We always believe that the solution will be better without cars but we also know that until these conditions are met finding free parking in Lisbon will always be a problem for those who want to move around the city
