Lisbon
Portugal – Atlantic Coast
Lisbon, Portugal’s vibrant capital, is a city of hills, history, and charm. Spread across seven hills overlooking the Tagus River, it blends colourful neighbourhoods, grand plazas, and sweeping viewpoints with a relaxed Mediterranean atmosphere. The historic districts of Alfama and Bairro Alto are filled with winding cobbled streets, traditional fado music, and tiled facades, while the elegant Baixa and Chiado areas offer shopping, cafés, and cultural attractions.
Lisbon is also a city of contrasts—ancient trams rumble through narrow streets, while modern architecture and trendy bars bring a contemporary edge. The city makes an excellent base for exploring the wider region, with Sintra’s fairytale palaces, Cascais’ beaches, and the dramatic cliffs of Cabo da Roca all within easy reach.
With year-round sunshine, delicious cuisine, and a welcoming atmosphere, Lisbon is the perfect destination for both a city break and a longer holiday.
