"Gare do Oriente is one of the main Portuguese intermodal transport hubs, and is situated in the civil parish of Parque das Nações, municipality of Lisbon.
Bids for building the project on lands to be used for the 1998 exposition were solicited internationally. The concept was originally designed by Spanish architect Santiago Calatrava in 1995, and built by Necso.
The station was inaugurated on 19 May 1998, as part of the celebrations marking the opening of the Expo '98 world's fair.At the time of its opening it was considered the largest intermodal station in Portugal., winning the Brunel Award on 7 October 1998, in the category of large new construction projects."
