About Lissabon

Lissabon stroomt van zijn heuvels af naar de Taag, een stad van betegelde gevels, ratelende gele trams, uitkijkterrassen en late, rustige diners.

De oude wijken bezitten de meeste charme. Het kluwen van steegjes in Alfama klimt naar het Castelo de São Jorge en weerklinkt 's avonds van fado, het regelmatige stratenraster van de Baixa loopt af naar het ruime Praça do Comércio aan de rivier, en Bairro Alto en Chiado combineren overdag boekwinkels en cafés met bars 's nachts. Uitzichtpunten als Santa Luzia en Senhora do Monte omlijsten rode daken en glinsterend water.

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