JERÓNIMOS MONASTERY

BELÉM TOWER

Also a World Heritage monument, the Belém Tower was built in 1515 to protect the harbor.

MAAT

One of Lisbon's most iconic buildings is an exceptional example of contemporary architecture. Visitors are allowed to walk over it, to admire a view of the river and 25 de Abril Bridge.

FRONTEIRA PALACE

Most of this palace's outstanding tile collection dates from between 1660 and 1670, covering much of the interior and the impressive garden outside. It's one of the most extraordinary tiled works of art in the world, mixing Portuguese and Dutch examples next to various decorative sculptures.

ALFAMA AND GRAÇA

It’s the city’s oldest neighborhood, found around the castle (Graça) and down the hill towards the river (Alfama).

CHIADO

The city’s most sophisticated neighborhood, known for shopping (now mostly international chains), cafés and theaters.

MARKETS

FOOD Mercearia Biologica, Comida Independente and LX Factory are great places to visit!
BOTANICAL GARDEN

The entrance to this garden is through a lane of palm trees that eventually leads to an enchanted “forest” of plants brought from expeditions to Africa, Brazil and Asia in the 18th century. An attraction not to miss is the butterfly greenhouse, which is the only one in Europe that’s open to the public.

Europe’s capital of romanticism is just 40 minutes from Lisbon. You need an entire day to see all of the fairytale castles and palaces, but the must-sees are:

PENA PALACE

It’s one of the world’s most spectacular palaces and one of Europe's most eclectic constructions. Resembling a fairytale castle.

QUINTA DE REGALERIA

An enigmatic neo-Manueline (Portuguese Gothic-Renaissance) monument is a magical place of fantastic gardens, grottoes, lakes, and a well with a monumental staircase spiraling down nearly 100 ft.

MONSERRATE

The palace mixes different styles, from the neo-Gothic to the neo-Moorish, and is topped by a dome inspired by the Duomo in Florence. It’s surrounded by a lush park with a remarkable botanical collection, with species from around the world, waterfalls and lakes, many of them created by Beckford and Cook.

The coastline extending to the west of Lisbon leads to Cascais, an affluent seaside suburb. It’s known for its sandy beaches and a calm sea, although there are also waves for surfers. It’s the coastline chosen by most tourists for a day at the beach, as it has a regular train service linking it to central Lisbon.

DISCOVER THE OLD TOWN

What was once once a sleeping fishing village along the Portuguese coast, quickly grew out to be a high-end destination along the Portuguese Riviera.

CASCAIS ART & MUSEUM DISTRICT

Within the walls of the Citadel of Cascais, the prolongation of the Nossa Senhora da Luz Fort fortification that used to defend the town from foreign invasions, you’ll find the elegant Cidadela Art District.

BOCA DO INFERNO

Boca do Inferno or Hell’s Mouth. It’s a rock formation that was heavily eroded and where the waves come crashing in.
