It’s one of the oldest cities in Europe and offers wonderful glimpses into Portugal’s layers of time and influence - come with us on an adventure through Lisbon old town and highlights from the city's rich, colourful past.
In our vlog, filmed at Christmastime, we share itinerary and tips on what to see and do in 'Lisbon old town' (Alfama, Castelo and Graça) including cobbled streets and amazing views from Castelo de São Jorge, Largo das Portas do Sol and Miradouro da Senhora do Monte.
Rossio and Baixa are very central areas, also filled with Lisbon old town charm. Take a look through Lisbon’s riverfront gateway sitting below Alfama, with bustling trams, Elevador de Santa Justa and the pretty Praça do Comércio to name just a few top things to take in.
Bairro Alto and Chiado are particularly good for dining and nightlife. These areas are within easy walking distance of Rossio and Praça do Comércio - all of this is close together and simple to explore on foot.
Belém is a little further along the waterfront and overlooks the Ponte 25 de Abril (bridge); with its pastries, and historical gems like Jerónimos Monastery, Belém Tower on the banks of Tagus River, and Padrão dos Descobrimentos (Monument of the Discoveries) celebrating travellers from the Portuguese Age of Discovery - Belém is not to be missed.
