The Vasco da Gama Tower (Portuguese: Torre Vasco da Gama, pronounced [ˈtoʁɨ ˈvaʃku ðɐ ˈɣɐmɐ]) is a 160-metre (520 ft) lattice tower with skyscraper in the civil parish of Parque das Nações, the municipality of Lisbon, in Portugal. Built on the north bank of the Tagus river, it is named after the Portuguese explorer Vasco da Gama (the first European to arrive in India by sail, in 1498). The tower portion is the tallest structure in Lisbon.
