Destinations > Portugal > Lisbon
Lisbon is the capital of Portugal overlooking the Atlantic Ocean and built on 7 hills. Lisbon is mostly famous for many lovely neighbourhoods and the typical centre streets where you can taste delicious Portoguese specialities. Belem is an absolute must-see if you travel to Lisbon: discover the Belem Tower, the Monument to the Discoveries and the Jeronimos Monastery. The picturesque zone of Alfama is where the Castle of Lisbon is placed: climb to the top of the castle for the best chance to have a great view over Lisbon and the sea. For shopping, the best you can find is the downtown neighbourhoods of Chaido and Baixa, which have been reconstructed after the 1755 Lisbon earthquake. Finally, you can reach the highest part of the centre to get to Bairro Alto in order to experience Lisbon’s youth nightlife and entertainment.
