• Lisbon - A warm welcome to guests. Departure from the hotel, private accommodation, or the designated meeting point.

• Torre de Belem - The Torre de Belém, originally known as Torre de São Vicente, is a fortification situated in Belém on the right bank of the Tagus River, where Belém beach once existed. Initially surrounded by water, it is now part of the mainland. This monument is a significant architectural symbol from the reign of D. Manuel I. Over time, the tower’s role in defending the Tagus River diminished, and during the Philippine occupation, its warehouses were converted into dungeons. The tower’s four floors include the Governor’s Room, the Kings Room, the Audience Room, and the Chapel with its distinctive 16th-century vaults. The Tower of São Vicente (1514) was part of a defense system for the Tagus basin, commissioned by João II of Portugal, alongside the tower of São Sebastião da Caparica (1481) and the Tower of Santo António de Cascais (1488).

• Padrao dos Descobrimentos - Designed by architect Cottinelli Telmo and sculptor Leopoldo de Almeida, this monument stands over 50 meters high along the Tagus River. Initially constructed in 1940 for the Portuguese World Exhibition, it was rebuilt in 1960 to commemorate the 500th anniversary of Infante D. Henrique’s death, a key figure in the Portuguese Discoveries. Shaped like a stylized caravel, it features Infante at the bow, followed by figures representing navigators, cartographers, warriors, colonizers, evangelizers, chroniclers, and artists. The Compass Rose, inaugurated on August 5, 1960, designed by architect Luís Cristino Silva, was a gift from South Africa.

• Mosteiro dos Jeronimos - In 1496, King D. Manuel requested permission from the Holy See to build a grand monastery at Lisbon’s entrance, near the Tagus River. Construction began in 1501 and concluded about a century later. The Jerónimos Monastery is often regarded as the “jewel” of the Manueline style, a unique Portuguese architectural style combining late Gothic and Renaissance elements with royal Christological and naturalistic symbolism. D. Manuel chose the monks of the Order of S. Jerónimo to occupy the Monastery, tasked with praying for the king’s soul and providing spiritual support to sailors and navigators departing from Restelo beach. Today, it is admired not only as a remarkable architectural piece but also as a vital part of cultural identity.

• Pastéis de Belém - Pastel de nata, a popular Portuguese sweet, originated from convents and was created by monks at the Jerónimos Monastery. The original recipe, known as Pastel de Belém, is exclusively produced at the Fábrica dos Pastéis de Belém in Lisbon. In 1837, near the Jerónimos Monastery, the clergy began selling custard tarts to make a living. At that time, Belém and Lisbon were separate locations accessible by steamboats. The presence of the Jerónimos Monastery and the Belém Tower attracted many tourists, helping to popularize the pastries. Visitors are encouraged to enjoy a pastel de Belém with a coffee (espresso).

• 25 de Abril Bridge - The 25 de Abril Bridge is a road-rail suspension bridge over the Tagus River, connecting Lisbon (north bank) to Almada (south bank) in Portugal. It spans the Tagus estuary at its narrowest point, known as the Tagus bottleneck. The bridge is 2,277 meters long, with a free span of 1,013 meters, making it the 33rd largest suspension bridge globally. The upper deck accommodates six road lanes (three per direction), while the lower deck has two electrified railway lines running from Lisbon to Setúbal. Construction began in November 1962 and lasted four years, with the bridge opening on August 6, 1966, initially with only a road deck. The railway deck was inaugurated on July 29, 1999. Until 1974, the bridge was named Ponte Salazar, after the prime minister who commissioned it. The name 25 de Abril commemorates the April 25, 1974, revolution.

• Santuario Nacional de Cristo Rei - The National Sanctuary of Christ the King, built in 1959, stands 133 meters above the Tagus River. Designed by architect António Lino, it features a 75-meter-high portico topped by a 28-meter statue of the Holy Redeemer with open arms facing Lisbon, created by Portuguese sculptor Francisco Franco de Sousa. The pedestal, including the portico, reaches 82 meters. The sanctuary and monument to Christ the King is Almada’s most significant tourist attraction, offering a panoramic view of Lisbon and the 25 de Abril Bridge. It is frequently featured in tourist reports about Lisbon and is one of Portugal’s tallest structures, standing 110 meters high.

• 25 de Abril Bridge - The 25 de Abril Bridge is a railway suspension bridge over the Tejo River, linking Lisbon (north bank) to Almada (south bank) in Portugal. It crosses the Tejo estuary at its narrowest point, known as the Tejo throat. The bridge is 2,277 meters long, with a free span of 1,013 meters, making it the 33rd largest suspension bridge worldwide. The upper deck has six road lanes (three per direction), while the lower deck contains two electrified rail lines from Lisbon to Setúbal. Construction began in November 1962 and lasted four years, with the bridge opening on August 6, 1966, initially with only a road deck. The railway deck was inaugurated on July 29, 1999. Until 1974, the bridge was called the Salazar Bridge, named after the prime minister who ordered its construction. The name 25 de Abril refers to the April 25, 1974, revolution.

• Castelo de S. Jorge - The Castle of São Jorge is one of Lisbon’s most iconic landmarks, located on the city’s highest hill. The oldest fortification on the site dates back to the 1st century BC, with traces found from the 6th century BC. Archaeology has uncovered evidence of Phoenician, Greek, Carthaginian, Roman, and Muslim presence, indicating continuous human occupation since ancient times. The castle itself was established in the 10th and 11th centuries when Lisbon was a significant Muslim port city. In 1147, Portugal’s first king, D. Afonso Henriques, captured the castle and city from the Moors. Between the 13th and 16th centuries, it experienced its most important period. In the 16th century, King D. Manuel I welcomed Vasco da Gama to the castle after his voyage to India. Declared a National Monument in 1910, it underwent extensive restoration in the 20th century, giving it its current appearance. It offers the best views of the city and the Tagus River.

• Miradouro de Santa Luzia - A stroll through the Alfama neighborhood will likely lead to the vibrant Miradouro de Santa Luzia. Here, near the garden and pergolas, artists and a lively crowd gather in the late afternoon. The location itself is charming, with flowers, colorful tiles, and seating areas. However, the view is what makes this viewpoint special. From here, one can admire the sea of red roofs in Alfama, extending to the banks of the Tagus near the new Cais de Cruzeiros. The Miradouro de Santa Luzia is close to another city-viewing terrace, the Miradouro das Portas do Sol. It’s worth visiting both viewpoints on the same tour.

• Lisbon Cathedral - The Lisbon Basilica of Santa Maria Maior, also known as the Lisbon Cathedral, is the city’s oldest church, built shortly after the reconquest from the Moors by D. Afonso Henriques. It serves as the seat of the Lisbon Patriarchate and the parish of the See and has been a National Monument since 1910. Construction began around 1147, following the first king of Portugal, D. Afonso Henriques, reclaiming the land from the Moors. It was built on the site of a former Muslim mosque, which archaeological excavations suggest was previously a Visigothic Christian temple. The first architect was Mestre Roberto, a Frenchman who also worked on the Sé de Coimbra and the Monastery of Santa Cruz. During this time, D. Afonso Henriques returned the relics of the martyr Saint Vincent of Zaragoza from the Algarve, now housed in the Cathedral.

• Church of St. Anthony - dddddddddddddd

• Rossio Square - Rebuilt after the 1755 earthquake, this beautiful Lisbon square borders the Baixa Pombalina region to the north. It features a large quadrilateral space dominated by the harmonious neoclassicism of the D. Maria II Theatre, erected on the site of the former House of the Inquisition. Over time, Rossio became a sunny and welcoming space, gaining prominence as the forum of Lisbon’s bourgeoisie. The square was filled with hotels (now mostly gone), shops, tobacco stores, and cafes. While many cafes have disappeared, Café Nicola (west side) and Swiss Pastelaria (east side) remain as reminders of a bygone era. In the center stands a 28-meter-tall column, erected in 1870, supporting the statue of King D. Peter IV, who holds the Constitutional Charter in his right hand. In 1889, two monumental fountains were added, one on each side of the column, where friendly florists sell flowers.

• Rua Augusta - Rua Augusta is the main artery of Baixa de Lisboa, developed after the reconstruction of the area destroyed by the 1755 earthquake. Named in honor of King D. Joseph I, it connects Praça do Comércio and Praça D. Pedro IV (Rossio Square). Rua Augusta is Lisbon’s main tourist street and is pedestrian-only, closed to traffic. It features various restaurants, hotels, and shops, including major international brands, and hosts several street artists. The beautiful Portuguese pavement that lines Rua Augusta is another of its attractions. Stroll down this street towards Praça do Comércio.

• Arco do Triunfo - Although inaugurated in 1875, the Arch of Rua Augusta was planned in 1759 to commemorate the Pombaline reconstruction of the city after the 1755 earthquake. Opened to the public on August 9, 2013, this space is worth visiting for its impressive view of Baixa de Lisboa and the Tagus River. The Arch of Rua Augusta has always impressed those walking through Lisbon’s busiest pedestrian street. It symbolizes Lisbon’s resilience and rebirth after the devastation of the 1755 earthquake. At the top, one can observe the magnificent sculptures by Célestin Anatole Calmels, where Glory crowns Genius and Valor. The remaining statues, by Victor Bastos, represent historical figures. On the left is the Marquis of Pombal, followed by Vasco da Gama, Viriato, and on the right, Nuno Álvares Pereira. It’s impossible not to feel inspired by such values, with a 360-degree view showcasing the best of Lisbon.

• Praca do Comercio (Terreiro do Paco) - Praça do Comércio, still commonly known by its former name Terreiro do Paço, is a square in Baixa de Lisboa located by the Tagus River, on the site of the former royal palace of Portugal’s kings for about two centuries, now partly occupied by government departments. It is one of Europe’s largest squares, covering approximately 36,000 m2, and is bordered by 79 arches. It is considered a historic symbol of political power and capitalism in Portugal, often associated with state centralism. In 1511, King D. Manuel I moved his residence from the Castle of São Jorge to this riverside location. The Paço da Ribeira, along with its library of 70,000 volumes, was destroyed by the 1755 earthquake. During the reconstruction, led by Eugénio dos Santos, the square became a key element of the Marquis of Pombal’s plan. The famous Martinho Café da Arcada, Lisbon’s oldest café, is located in this square.

• Miradouro Sao Pedro de Alcantara - The Garden of São Pedro de Alcântara is well-known to Lisbon visitors. No one wants to miss the expansive view from Park Eduardo VII to the Tagus River. Located along the Amoreiras/Chiado axis, just below the Garden of the Royal Prince, this rectangular space, consisting of two levels of terraces, offers more than just beautiful views. The oldest piece in the garden comes from the gardens of the Palace of Bemposta on the Hill of Santana. Besides the artistic elements that make this space admirable, it’s important to note that this is one of the best places to observe Lisbon’s unique light. While the morning light is more intense, the afternoon offers a dazzling green landscape, regardless of the season.

• Jardim do Principe Real - The Royal Prince’s Garden, officially named Jardim França Borges, is a garden in Lisbon near Bairro Alto. This romantically designed garden was established in the mid-19th century. Notable features include a Cedro-do-Buçaco with a diameter of over 20 meters, classified as a tree of public interest, and the underground water reservoir of the Patriarchal. The weekly organic farming market held on Saturdays is one of the many events hosted here.

• Praca dos Restauradores - Praça dos Restauradores is located in downtown Lisbon, at the southern end of Avenida da Liberdade, a short distance from Praça de Dom Pedro IV (commonly known as Rossio). The square is characterized by a tall obelisk, 30 meters high, called the Monument to the Restauradores, inaugurated on April 28, 1886, commemorating the country’s liberation from Spanish rule on December 1, 1640. The central sidewalk of the square features Portuguese cobblestone.

• Parque Eduardo VII - Parque Eduardo VII de Virgínia, formerly known as Parque da Liberdade, is the largest park in central Lisbon, commonly referred to as Parque Eduardo VII. Located in São Sebastião da Pedreira, it was named in 1903 in honor of Edward VII of the United Kingdom, who visited Lisbon the previous year to reaffirm the alliance between the two countries. Parque Eduardo VII was developed in the first half of the 20th century to provide Lisbon with a public space similar to what the Passeio Público offered until the mid-19th century, which was destroyed with the opening of Avenida da Liberdade in 1882. The open land from Pedreira de São Sebastião was used, originally intended as a “green” extension of Avenida da Liberdade. The current park design was created by architect Francisco Keil do Amaral in 1942.

• Marquês de Pombal - Sebastião José de Carvalho e Melo, Marquês de Pombal and Count of Oeiras, served as Prime Minister under D. José I from 1750 to 1777 and was instrumental in Lisbon’s reconstruction after the 1755 earthquake. A monument of grand proportions, built in his honor through public subscription, features the marquis with a lion in bronze, seated on a pedestal approximately 40 meters high, crafted from stone. It includes four medallions representing Pombal’s key collaborators, such as Manuel da Maia, Eugénio dos Santos, and Machado de Castro, while the lower part of the base is surrounded by several allegorical figures, including a female figure symbolizing rebuilt Lisbon and three sculptural groups representing Pombal’s reforms in agriculture, industry, and education. It was inaugurated on May 13, 1934.
