Lisbon Will Steal Your Heart

Lisbon, the capital of Portugal, is a city rich in history and culture, offering a unique blend of old-world charm and modern attractions. Situated along the banks of the River Tagus, it is known for its stunning architecture, including the iconic Belém Tower and Jerónimos Monastery. Lisbon's steep, cobbled streets are lined with pastel-coloured buildings, and its historic trams provide a nostalgic way to explore the city's many neighbourhoods.

Visitors can enjoy delicious Portuguese cuisine, lively fado music, and breathtaking views from its many miradouros, or viewpoints. With a pleasant climate and a warm, welcoming atmosphere, Lisbon is a captivating destination for travellers.
