Lisbon is a truly magical place that will enchant you. In fact, all those who have visited the city have fallen in love with it. The climate is very favorable, with winters and autumns rarely dropping below 5ºC. Also, spring and summer are full of sunny days, perfect for enjoying the beaches. Lisbon is located on 7 hills. So it is not surprising that on every corner there is a different viewpoint, facing a different side of the city. Add to that the fact that Lisbon is a city with beautiful architecture, is on the banks of a river that looks like the sea because of its width and has simply amazing views, and it is to be expected that one of the reasons to come to Lisbon is to visit not one but several of these viewpoints. Castles, palaces and historic mansions coexist with modern museums and contemporary art galleries. The mix of architectural styles does not lose touch with its history and captivates photographers and travelers alike. There is an abundance of colorful baroque, neoclassical, medieval and gothic buildings. Sao Jorge Castle overlooks the city from a hilltop, and the 25 de Abril suspension bridge spans the river. In Lisbon, a simple stroll through the city becomes a journey through Lisbon's history. There are many monuments not to be missed, but there are two that have been declared World Heritage Sites. We are talking about the Belém Tower and the Jerónimos Monastery. In this beautiful city we can find museums of all kinds. One of the most important is the Ancient Art Museum (with paintings, drawings, sculptures and engravings). There is also the Carriage Museum (one of the best collections of this means of transport), the Tile Museum and the Fado Museum (one of the typical artistic manifestations of Portugal). This city is famous for its incredibly beautiful tiles; traditional Portuguese mosaics. Tile making is an art form here, and in every neighborhood you can find a few buildings or a museum or fountain decorated with intricate tiles, from ancient mosaics dating from different historical periods of Lisbon to modern art pieces. Cobblestone streets connect neighborhoods of picturesque historic houses, fishing boats and yachts bobbing gently in the harbor. As for the waterfront, there are many options to choose from. Both west-facing and south-facing beaches can be found in Lisbon and the surrounding areas. There is also an artificial beach, Ribeira das Naus, where the river and the city center meet. Here you can also find different gastronomic proposals, nightclubs, an extensive sports and cultural offer, and magnificent views. Don't let the cost of accommodation stop you from visiting Lisbon.
