Lisbon

The city’s hilly landscape provides tourists with spots to visit where they can enjoy breathtaking views, especially from the São Jorge Castle where you can view the historic center. Strolling its streets will lead you to discover areas like the Avenida da Liberdade, institutions like the National Museum of Ancient Art, and popular hangout spots where you can delight in local cuisine and listen to Fado music.
