Museums and monuments ready to welcome visitors
Museums, palaces, art galleries, and monuments have all now reopened, following the second phase of easing of lockdown. A great relief for cultural workers, as well as tourists and Lisboetas.
According to a report from UNESCO, in 2020 museums around the world were closed for an average of 155 days, and since the beginning of 2021, many of them have been forced to close their doors again, causing a 70 percent drop in visitors, and between 40 percent to 60 percent drop in revenues, compared to 2019. After months of lockdown, re-opening museums and monuments will not only be a big relief to cultural workers, but also to tourists discovering the city, as well as Lisboetas ready to re-discover it.
