Lisbon's seven hills

Lisbon is built on seven hills at the mouth of the Tagus River. This unique geography gives every district a different elevation. You will get great views from the various 'miradouros', the panoramic lookouts scattered around Lisbon. At the top of the Alfama district you will find such a miradouro at Castelo de São Jorge. This 11th century Moorish castle is perched on the city's highest hill. The view from the castle walls is breathtaking. Don't feel like climbing every hill on foot? Grab one of Lisbon's many trams, cable cars or lifts. The Elevador de Santa Justa reminds you of the Eiffel Tower. Tram 28 is the world famous yellow tram that follows a beautiful route through the city's old districts.

Discovering the city

The lower part of the city is just as special. On the Tagus you will find the Praça do Comércio, a vast square of 150 by 150 metres. Walk from here under the beautiful triumphal arch into the Rua Augusta. This is one of Lisbon's most famous shopping streets. In addition to many shops you will find terraces, street artists and music. Can't get enough of the impressive buildings? Then go to the Belém district and feast your eyes on the architectural gems of the Mosteiro dos Jerónimos and the Torre de Belém. This is where explorers such as Vasco da Gama once sailed from to discover the New World. Belém is also where you can sample the best 'pastéis de nata'. Grab a bench by the water and enjoy this traditional Portuguese pastry. From here you have a beautiful view of the Ponte 25 de Abril, Lisbon's very own Golden Gate Bridge.

"Lisbon combines unique culture and history with lively nightlife. And you can sample the most delicious food."

Fairytale Sintra

Fan of fairy tales? Rent a car and visit nearby Sintra. Nestled against a mountainside, this town is full of beautiful castles and palaces that you know from the best Disney films. Once the residences of Portugal's royal family, the buildings are now a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Perfect for a day trip. When you return, relax in your boutique hotel in Bairro Alto or Alfama so you have energy to go out again at night. In these vibrant districts, you eat the freshest sardines and taste authentic dried cod dishes. The melancholic sounds of fado in the background make you feel right at home. Just enjoy and order another drink!
