Lisbon is Portugal’s capital and the hub of a multifaceted area that appeals to different tastes and senses.
“Lisbon was built on seven sunny cinematic hills overlooking the Tagus river, where visitors can enjoy postcard-perfect panoramas that have been crafted over centuries. In Lisbon, the Tagus river is never far away as we explore the history-laden streets of a city that constantly confronts us with its past, as the decorative cobble pavements lead us up from the Praça do Comercio through the 18th century Lower Town to St. George’s Castle. Getting the feel of a city involves a mixture of observation and experience that only happens when we allow ourselves to be drawn into its daily life and discover its aromas, sounds, music, alley-ways, and food. Portuguese cuisine has many Mediterranean influences and is famous for the freshness of its seafood. In Lisbon, visitors can enjoy a wide variety of Portuguese dishes and the worldwide-famous Portuguese custard tarts.”
