Things to do in Lisbon

A must-see landmark in Lisbon, the Jerónimos Monastery is a masterpiece of Manueline architecture and a UNESCO World Heritage Site along with the Belém Tower. Features: 1. Double-layered cloisters: The essence of the monastery, the two-tiered arcades are intricately carved with nautical elements. Sunlight filters through the arches, creating layers of interplay of light and shadow, perfect for stunning photos. 2. The cathedral: Its interior columns branch upwards like tree trunks, and its magnificent, open vaulted ceiling houses the remains of navigator Vasco da Gama and poet Luís Camões.

Really nice place overall. Good views and show inside as well. Don't book via Trip.com. It is OVER PRICED here. Book directly from the website to skip the line and enter. However if you get the ticket at the ticket office, you could get a physical ticket.

This is the westernmost point of the European continent, like the end of the world. I'm not introducing this place, but it's a place I've dreamed of visiting since my freshman year of college. After starting work, I waited for many years, and last December, I finally had the chance to go. The moment my ride-hailing car arrived, reaching the paradise I had longed for for so many years, I was so excited that I couldn't stop crying. This place is like a fairyland. As someone who has loved geography since childhood, of course I studied the granite sea-eroded landforms of the Atlantic Ocean.

Alfama, Lisbon’s oldest soul: winding streets, colorful tiles, historic charm, and soulful Fado echoing from hidden corners. 🇵🇹✨ A true Lisbon gem.

Belém Tower is one of Lisbon’s most iconic and historically important sites, deeply connected to Portugal’s Age of Discoveries. Even though the tower is currently covered with scaffolding, the area is still absolutely worth a visit. The riverside promenade nearby is perfect for a relaxed walk, with beautiful views of the Tagus River and a great Lisbon atmosphere. A place you shouldn’t skip when exploring the city.

发现者纪念碑，在贝伦塔旁边，是为纪念葡萄牙航海家恩里克王子逝世500周年而建的地标性建筑，位于里斯本贝伦区特茹河畔，形如帆船，象征葡萄牙大航海时代的辉煌历史。‌ 纪念碑前的广场铺设巨型航海罗盘图案，中央为标注葡萄牙航海路线的世界地图。

The Lisbon Oceanarium is excellent value for money and a perfect rainy-day pick if you want to see impressive marine life. It’s one of Europe’s largest indoor aquariums, with a huge central tank featuring sharks, rays, sunfish, and tuna, plus diverse habitat zones. Plan 2–3 hours; adult tickets are around €25 but can be discounted depending on promos. Nearby, you can ride the cable car and explore Parque das Nações

The oldest Catholic church in Lisbon is located halfway up a hill in the old town of Alfama. Behind it is the site of a Roman theater, which is being excavated and repaired. It was well preserved even after the Lisbon earthquake! The stained glass in the church is beautiful!

Lisbon's Avenida da Liberdade is the busiest commercial street in the city, with many luxury brand stores. The exquisitely paved stone walkway is inlaid with unique Portuguese colored bricks, making for a relaxing stroll.

Vasco da Gama Bridge 🆚 Sports Park (Vasco da Gama Bridge) One of the longest bridges in Europe, 17.2 kilometers long. The bridge is located in the parish of Moscavide, about 10 kilometers northeast of Lisbon, part of the city of Loures, close to the Tagus River. On both sides of the bridge is a quiet modern community with a slow-paced atmosphere. It is also popular among locals because of its proximity to Lisbon Airport and the modern National Park (Parque das Nações); especially the sports park under the bridge, which is close to the water and has a large green space. In the evening, sports enthusiasts run on the overhead walkway from time to time, and there are sports figures everywhere on the tennis courts, padle courts and football fields.
