Marvila / Beato

Marvila and Beato are the eastern riverside warehouses where Lisbon has put its creative second act, a stretch of former industry now holding craft breweries, galleries and a fast-growing tech and design scene. The scale is different here: long brick sheds, loading bays turned tasting rooms, art in spaces that still smell faintly of the work they once did. It is uneven and under construction, which is part of the appeal for anyone tired of the polished centre. Go for the breweries and the contemporary art, and read the city's near future.
