LISBOA

The capital of Portugal and centre of the Government. Although Lisboa is not all Portugal has to offer by a long way it is a great city and very well worth a visit. Beautiful buildings and a perfect setting by the sea

It would be difficult to argue which of Belém’s many attractions is its greatest, but certainly its most imposing is the Mosteiro dos Jerónimos. Funded principally by an early tax on eastern spices, construction of this massive monastery began in 1502 and progressed through various styles under different architects until 1580. As you enter through the western portage, you’ll see the stone sarcophagi of the famed explorer Vasco da Gama and Portugal’s greatest poet, Luís de Camões. Near the choir,

Elizabeth McGovern's Lisbon
Why Lisbon? It’s a magical kind of place that I find as beautiful as Paris but not so jaded and well-trodden. There’s a freshness about the colours of the city, and a freshness about the people, who are incredibly warm and welcoming. And I like its lack of pretension. I think it’s the perfect city for a short spring break.

How I Fell for Lisbon (Published 2012)
I met Lisbon in a snit. I was exhausted and impatient and thinking well past it, to the northern Portugal city of Oporto and the wine country nearby, my ultimate destination and real interest. Lisbon was just a 24-hour stopover, reached after a sleepless overnight flight from New York, and my hotel there didn’t want to let my companion and me check in and nap and shower and get into clean clothes for another six hours. After some fruitless groveling, we staggered into the streets, lacking a map

Lisbona città magica: impressioni della seconda volta.
Lisbona città magica: impressioni della seconda volta | via In Ogni Viaggio | 26/07/2014 Lisbona un po’ dentro a questa frase ci sta. Io, se chiudo gli occhi e la immagino nei secoli passati, vedo una città in continuo movimento: arrivi di grandi navi dalle Americhe, partenze senza tempo per posti lontani, via vai di marinai e di commercianti, saluti di amanti e viaggiatori. Io la vita di un tempo di Lisbona la vedo così, fatta di storie intrecciate e segrete. #Portugal
