7. The Portuguese Inquisition, established in 1536 and lasting nearly three centuries, marked one of the darkest chapters in the nation’s history. Once at the height of global influence, Portugal’s empire began to decline under the weight of this institution, which spread fear, intolerance, and religious persecution. Countless innocent lives were lost, many of them right here in Praça do Giraldo, where public executions by fire took place during the infamous acts of faith. Among the four Inquisition courts across Portugal, Évora’s was considered the most ruthless, leaving behind a somber legacy that still echoes in the city today.

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.
