Map

Lisbon is the capital of Portugal and is located in the center of the country, on the banks of the Tagus River and 17 km from the Atlantic. The city has a population of just over half a million inhabitants, but almost three million people live in the Lisbon Metropolitan Region.

There is no shortage of good reasons to visit Lisbon. One of the most vibrant and cosmopolitan European capitals, there is always something to see or do in Lisbon. There are many monuments to visit and the cultural offer is extensive.

If you like a city that has managed to maintain its history, its monuments and its cultural aspects, but which is at the same time a modern and cosmopolitan city, then Lisbon is the ideal destination.

The city of Lisbon has many hills and many cobblestone streets, famous worldwide. Good shoes are essential for navigating historic streets and neighborhoods. Lisbon's 'light' is considered one of the best in Europe.

High. Lisbon has a lot of ups and downs, lots of tight streets and lots of stairs. But there are many cafes to sit down, relax a little and regain strength for another stage. The walk through Belém is in a flat area and easier to walk, but we still recommend wearing comfortable shoes.
