Lisbon Vacation Travel Guide | Expedia

Lisbon – Welcome to the capital of Portugal. Explore the hilly streets of this coastal city and take in the rich culture here. Check out the top spots to visit. When ready, browse vacation packages to Lisbon: https://www.expedia.com/Lisbon-District.d178278.Destination-Travel-Guides From a Phoenician outpost to 16th-century trading giant, from the Great Earthquake of 1755 to its glorious reconstruction, #Lisbon has long been a city of shifting fortunes. On a #visit to the waterfront, find the city’s grand gateway, Praça do Comércio. Pass beneath the triumphal arch, a tribute to the city’s reconstruction, and on to Rua Augusta to another of Lisbon’s great squares, the Rossio. Climb aboard Tram 28, which passes some of the city’s most iconic sights, then climb the battlements of Castelo de São Jorge to see the red-tiled roofs of Lisbon spread out before you. Although the Great Earthquake reduced much of Lisbon to rubble, the ancient suburb of Alfama was spared. Lose yourself amid the cobblestones, where cafes, bars and artisan shops have taken residence in the dockworkers’ homes of old. A #vacation here will reward you with some of Europe’s most beautiful beaches. For now, we hope you enjoy watching this #travel #guide as much as we enjoyed making it.

“Try to keep this one to seven minutes, okay." These are the words our production manager routinely dispenses as our team embark on a new destination guide. One look at the footage of Lisbon, however, and we quickly realized there was zero chance of a seven minute video. In fact we had a hard time bringing this one in at under fifteen! Well, there's always next time. Until then, come with us and explore Portugal's incredible capital; a place where beauty, tradition, creativity and adventure knows no limit.

Nobody knows how I love Lisboa. Greetings from the Dominican Republic.

@jjsep60

Been away from Portugal for 35 years going back to my roots in less then 5 days with my children and grand children. I miss my family and friends and the way of the Portuguese life, Love from Sydney, Australia.

@h.b.7104

The best seafood I've ever had in my life was in Lisbon at the restaurant Ramiro. The freshest ever.

@dimitarkomitov5991

Lisbon and Portugal in general are so exotic and I like the narrator's portuguese accent. This is one of the best presentations ever

@brentcarrell4275

Visited Lisbon in summer 2019. Was absolutely spellbound by the hilltop views of the city and by the castles in Sintra. And those egg tarts were crazy addictive. The tile work on the walls of the buildings in Lisbon (as well as Porto) are absolutely gorgeous. There's a lot of steep hills to navigate so bring good walking shoes, but so compact that you can cover lots of ground in a short time. And the seafood in Lisbon is top notch (and super affordable). I saw shockingly few American tourists there compared to elsewhere in western Europe, but was warmly received by every Lisboeta I encountered. Portugal is truly the most underrated European country I've been to thusfar.

I first visited Lisbon & Porto in 1994, with my - then girlfriend from NYC. Both cities were diamonds in the rough back then...poor, and ramshackle - like Havana. I returned in 1996 - alone, and stayed 6 months. I had fallen under Lisbon's spell, and felt then that the city would be "Discovered" again, and Man! - was that a prescient thought! I returned again in 2008, and 2009, and the changes were Phenomenal! I have not been back since, but from most of my Portuguese friends I hear that the city is firing on ALL Cylinders, and yet - Tourism is beginning to erode the Portuguese Way of Life! Madonna has apparently purchased a small palace in Sintra, and property in Lisbon, so... you know the "Hand of Doom" is looming over Portugal in a way not seen since the 1755 Earthquake! I love the place like no other, and hope to live there again. My suggestion to Travelers who wish to experience this still magical place - DO NOT act like uninformed, spoilt brats!...... 1. Learn some Portuguese! - most Lisboetas under the age of 45 are semi-fluent in English, French, and definitely Spanish, but...do not speak Spanish! - It's seen as an insult! Familiarize yourself with Fernando Pessoa - the great 20th century Poet of Lisbon! He is IMPORTANT as a key to understanding the Portuguese emotional state, aka "Saudades"! 2. Avoid the restaurants with the "Touristas" menus,, and seek out LOCAL places - they're plentiful, and inexpensive, usually. They tend to be in areas like Santa Catarina (Bicos), Mouraria, Principe Real, Lapa, Anjos, Graca (Especially!), and Belem. Bario Alto has a plethora of good restaurants, but it tends towards touristy, and the crowds are massive! Alfama is atmospheric as fuck!, but also caters to tourist. If the "Clown School" - CHAPITO, in Castelo is still open, that's a very nice 'alternative' hang. 3. SUPPORT LOCAL CULTURE!!! - There are quite a few good museums, and that's cool, but try to see the Calouste Gulbenkian, as not only is the collection marvelous, The Foundation supports a wide range of music, theater, and dance with the emphasis on Contemporary. And, although Fado can be heart-breakingly beautiful - it can also be kitschy, and 'meh' if the performers heart's not into it! Explore with caution...go to the Fado Museum and get an understanding, first! Lisbon is the home of CLEAN FEED Records - Europe's premiere Avant-Garde Jazz, and Music label! On some nights you can find more challenging, and experimental music than you can in NYC! The award winning Avant Saxophonist, Rodrigo Amado is from Lisbon, as well as the awesome noise/experimental Guitarist - Luis Lopes. If either is playing (they often work together!) by all means - GO see them! Lisbon has become a Mecca for alternative music - much more so than Madrid, and Barcelona! Bands to keep your ears open for: The Anarchicks (all-girl Punk/Alt Rock), Linda Martini (Post-Rock, ala Sonic Youth, Mogwai...), Alexander Search (kinda Radiohead-ish), and by all means - check-out the music venues - Music Box (Cais du Soidre), ZBD (Bario Alto), Hot Clube du Jazz (Principe Real), and Praca da Prata. If this isn't enough! - there is the music being made my the People from the former Colonies of Portugal - Mozambique, Cape Verde, Angola, and Brazil! Sorry for this long-winded posting, but this is for anyone looking for a unique experience... Obviously - I LOVE LISBON! The People are beautiful, kind, and thoughtful, The Beaches - unearthly gorgeous, and Sintra should not even exist...it's THAT Beautiful! PLEASE! Be incredibly grateful you are THERE! Treat it as if it were your own - with Respect, and Loving Kindness! You will be rewarded in spades with the best trip EVER! I know It's selfish of me, but I want it to still be "Lisbon" when I move back!
