Av. Infante Dom Henrique 332, 1800-224 Lisboa, Portugal

Elevador de Santa Justa, Lisbon, Portugal
Take one of the most iconic elevators in Lisbon. A unique structure and a phenomenal view from the top make it one of the city's most sought-after attractions. The Santa Justa elevator is one of the most famous historical monuments in downtown Lisbon. Designed by Mesnier du Ponsard, it was originally called Ascensor Ouro-Carmo. It connects Rua do Ouro to Largo do Carmo, in a neo-Gothic style structure completely different from the other elevators in the city. The wooden cabins themselves, elegantly decorated with brass, evoke a journey through time as you ascend and descend towards the city's most exclusive areas. At the top of the tower you will find one of the best viewpoints in the city, which provides a splendid view of the Baixa, the Castle, the Tagus River and the impressive ruins of the Igreja do Convento do Carmo. It's worth climbing up and feeling a shiver of emotion with the landscape that stretches out before your eyes.
20 minutes
Miradouro das Portas do Sol, Lisbon, Portugal
Whether on a climb from the Cathedral to the Castle of São Jorge or the other way around, the Portas do Sol viewpoint is a perfectly located spot in the middle of this route for an impromptu break. Visiting the viewpoint is also an excuse to appreciate the genuine features of Lisbon in a fantastic view to the eastern front of the Alfama District and the Tagus River, which extends to the river's edge in a unique maze of streets, staircases and lanes. From the top of the viewpoint it is also possible to admire the various domes and different architectures of the churches of Santo Estêvão, São Miguel and São Vicente de Fora. Being at the Portas do Sol viewpoint is like being on a balcony at home, thanks to its cozy and busy atmosphere. In addition to the postcard-worthy view of Lisbon, at the Portas do Sol viewpoint you can have an authentic Portuguese coffee at the viewpoint kiosk, see the famous tram 28 that passes constantly in front of you and also visit the statue of São Vicente, patron saint of Lisbon, holding the ferry that is the symbol of the capital.
25 minutes
Miradouro da Senhora do Monte, Lisbon, Portugal
It was once one of the city's biggest secrets, but it has been discovered by tour guides and couples. It offers a panoramic view of Lisbon, which is also seen by a small image of the Virgin that gives the viewpoint its name. Behind the image is a small chapel from the 18th century, which is almost always closed. An old legend has it that pregnant women who sat in the stone chair inside would have easier births. This is one of the highest points in the city, so you can see several monuments, identified on a tile panel. The viewpoint is very popular at sunset, but during the day there are also those who spend hours in the shade of olive trees, cypresses and stone pines. To get here, walk along Rua da Graça from Largo da Graça, and turn left at Rua da Senhora do Monte.
30 minutes
Alfama, Lisbon, Portugal
This medieval neighborhood (which was once a Jewry and a fishing community) is the oldest neighborhood in Europe, after El Pópulo in Cadiz. It is a small village or medina in the middle of the capital, and a relic from the times before the great earthquake of 1755. It escaped the catastrophe thanks to its solid foundations on the highest hill in the city, which extends to the neighborhood of Graça. It is a neighborhood to get lost in alleys and squares, letting yourself be guided by the senses: seeing drying racks on the balconies and fantastic views of the Tagus, smelling fish to roast on the corner, listening to the sounds of Fado from inside a typical restaurant, savoring traditional dishes and touching magnificent tile panels. This is the most picturesque neighborhood in Lisbon and the true soul of the city. Here life continues as it did centuries ago, but going down to the river you enter the 21st century again, with old warehouses now converted into some of the most fashionable spaces in the city.
30 minutes
Praca do Comercio (Terreiro do Paco), Lisbon, Portugal
Praça do Comércio, Commerce Square in English, is Lisbon’s main square. It was built on the site where the old Royal Palace used to exist before it was destroyed by the earthquake of 1755. The southern end of the plaza is open and looks out onto the Tagus River. The other three sides have yellow-coloured buildings with arcades all along the façade. When the square was first built, the commercial ships would unload their goods directly onto this square, as it was considered the “door” to Lisbon.
15 minutes
Baixa, Rossio & Restauradores, Lisbon, Portugal
The Lower Lisbon was completely rebuilt in the 18th century, after its destruction by the 1755 earthquake. It was the largest earthquake ever recorded in Europe, but it led to the first neoclassical urban planning and the first large-scale anti-seismic construction in the world. Streets were designed with very specific shapes and measures, which were given the names of the various crafts and craftsmen of the time (cobblers, gilders, brokers, gold and silver). In the 20th century many of the buildings were occupied by banks and offices, pushing residents to Avenidas Novas, and eventually leaving several buildings to be abandoned. However, in recent years the neighborhood has been reborn as a commercial and tourist center. Many of the streets are pedestrian, and connect a set of monumental squares, from Rossio with its cafes to Praça do Comércio with its triumphal arch, to the elegant Praça do Município. There are currently several projects for the major rehabilitation of the area since the 18th century Pombaline reconstruction, and there is hope that it will be recognized as a World Heritage Site.
30 minutes
Avenida da Liberdade, Lisbon, Portugal
The Lisbon version of the Parisian Champs-Elysées. It is a tree-lined avenue covered in Portuguese pavement between the Restauradores and Marquês de Pombal squares, and it is where the luxury stores are located, starting at Rua Castilho to the north, and then going down the avenue. This is also an area of theaters and beautiful old buildings, although many others were demolished for new construction in the mid-20th century. However, a few notable examples still survive, many of them winners of the Valmor Prize, an impressive example being found at number 206-218 in Art Nouveau style, today housing a Prada store. Going up the hill on the east side (with the help of the Elevador do Lavra) you reach the old parish of Pena, a more typical neighborhood, where the famous fado singer Amália Rodrigues was born, and where you can find a little-known viewpoint, the Miradouro do Torel.
15 minutes
Santuario Nacional de Cristo Rei, Almada, Portugal
The National Sanctuary of Cristo Rei is located at an altitude of 133 meters above the level of the Tagus, being constituted by a portico designed by the architect António Lino, with 75 meters of height, surmounted by the statue of the Most Holy Redeemer with open arms facing the city of Lisbon, 28 meters high, by the Portuguese sculptor Francisco Franco de Sousa. The pedestal, including the portico, rises to 82 meters in height. The sanctuary and monument to Cristo Rei is the biggest tourist attraction in the municipality of Almada. This monument is the best viewpoint overlooking the city of Lisbon, offering a wide view over the capital and over the 25 de Abril Bridge. Numerous tourist reports about Lisbon include the sanctuary and monument to Cristo Rei, ex-libris of Almada. It is one of the tallest buildings in Portugal, 110 meters high.
30 minutes
Torre de Belem, Lisbon, Portugal
The ex-libris of Lisbon looks like a small castle out of a fairy tale. It is an architectural jewel from the Age of Discovery, now classified as a World Heritage Site.
30 minutes
Padrao dos Descobrimentos, Lisbon, Portugal
isolated and highlighted on the wall by the Tagus, the Padrão dos Descobrimentos evokes the Portuguese overseas expansion, synthesizes a glorious past and symbolizes the greatness of the work of Infante D. Henrique, the driver of the discoveries. A stylized caravel takes to the sea, leading Infante D. Henrique to the bow and some of the protagonists (32) of the overseas gesture and culture of the time, navigators, cartographers, warriors, colonizers, evangelizers, chroniclers and artists, are portrayed with the symbols that individualize them. A stylized mast, with North - South orientation, has two Portuguese shields on each side, with five corners, surrounded by a strip with 12 castles and in the center several fleur-de-lis. To the mast, three triangular, curved structures are sweetened on each face, giving the illusion of sails blown by the wind.
30 minutes
Mosteiro dos Jeronimos, Lisbon, Portugal
The extraordinary stone carved in the cloisters of this monastery glorifies the times when the West and the East met, and the man who managed to bring these worlds together - Vasco da Gama - is buried inside the church.
