Exploring Abandoned Building in Lisbon

Exploring Abandoned Building in Lisbon
In this Vlog we wake up at dawn and go exploring an abandoned building overlooking the city of Lisbon. Initially, we thought it was a destroyed or abandoned hotel but later we discovered it was actually an abandoned restaurant built there for the gorgeous panoramic view. The building dates back to 1968 but has been abandoned for more than a decade. Abandoned building exploration or as it's commonly called "urban exploration" turns out to be a really cool activity which I hope to do more often! This place is also great to see some of the best Lisbon graffiti as it is completely unregulated. The place is called Panoramico de Monsanto and is in the middle of the forest overlooking Lisbon.
ABOUT ME:
If this is the first time you see one of my videos I would like to introduce myself and welcome you to my channel! Here you will find backpacking videos on how to travel the world continuously as a digital nomad. I promise a lot of adventures and fun as well as practical tips on how to stay on the road for longer.
My name is Duarte de Zoeten, I am a digitalnomad a bakpacker and a travelvlogger. I first started solo travelling almost two years ago now. On that first trip backpacking alone around New Zealand, Indonesia and Thailand, I discovered I have an insatiable wanderlustbug. The freedom and adventure had a huge effect on me. Soon, I started to wonder how to travel non stop. Permanent travel, as they call it, was for me an impossible dream reserved only for the luckiest and most successful travek blogger. People who are location independant and can travel to all countries in the world seemed like a thing from another galaxy.
After living a semi-nomadic lifestyle (no more than 4 months in the same place) in the Netherlands, London, Lisbon and New York I decided to take it to the next level and quit my job to travel. Becoming a digital nomad is not as difficult as it seems, all you need is to be persistent and before you know it you travel permenantly around the world. My approach now is to freelance and travel continuously and most of the times travelling alone as it frees me in a way that only a solo travler will know.
I have decided to start a daily travel blog or travel vlogg on how travelling continuously can be a reality for everyone. Travel nonstop, become the bakpaker who wants to travel all countries in the world and become nomad to enjoy the ultimate freedom reserved only to those willing to break from the dullness of certainty and a 9 to 5 job.

This building was an old restaurant called 'Panorâmico de Monsanto', very posh and fancy in the 60's or 70's I'm not sure. Inside you have some interesting mosaics but unfortunately a lot of stuff is just broken in pieces. Definitely, 'la pièce de résistance' is the panoramic room on top, with a amazing view overlooking the city (this building is on a hill near Lisbon), like you showed in the video. Also there you have a enormous typical portuguese tile depicting the city as you see it from the window, pinpoiting the main buildings and places you can see. Its interesting to see the differences between the real view and the one on the tiles, since it was from maybe 50 years ago. I went there my chance when doing moutain bike with some friends long time ago. But nowadays everybody knows about this spot and its it's actually quite trendy for young people to go there. You should consider yourself lucky if there's no-one there and have it all for youself these days. Nice video man
