Things to do in LISBON
Climb to the Castle of São Jorge
Visit the Castle of São Jorge, a truly unforgettable moment! It is the highest point in the city, located in the freguesia of Santa Maria Maior, set in between neighbourhoods and the sea. Perfect for capturing excellent views of the city’s skyline.
Stroll through Alfama
Wander downhill (to save your running legs) through Alfama’s steep, narrow, cobblestoned streets and catch a glimpse of the more traditional side of Lisbon. Walk in a backstreet cafe along the way and experience some local bonhomie without the tourist bustle.
Mosteiro dos Jerónimos
Lisbon’s heart-stealer is this Unesco-listed monastery. This monastery is the most remarkable Portuguese monastic ensemble of its time and one of the main European churches, located near the Tagus river.
