  4. This church has a touristic circuit inside. You can do it if you wish but just going around this beautiful building filled with tiles is usually a highlight on its own but we will let you decide whether to take the circuit of not.

  5. We will walk around the area where the Clérigos Church and Tower are and you are free to decide to go up the tower for a great view of the city or simply take some pictures.

About Lisbon

Lisbon spills down its hills to the Tagus estuary, a city of tiled façades, rattling yellow trams, viewpoint terraces and late, unhurried dinners.

The old quarters hold most of the charm. Alfama's tangle of lanes climbs to São Jorge Castle and echoes with fado in the evening, the Baixa's orderly grid runs down to the vast Praça do Comércio on the river, and Bairro Alto and Chiado mix bookshops and cafés by day with bars by night. Viewpoints such as Santa Luzia and Senhora do Monte frame red rooftops and shining water.

Top-ranked sights in Lisbon: Commerce Square (Praça do Comércio), Pena National Palace (Palacio Nacional da Pena), Alfama.
