We will start our tour of Lisbon at the Commercial Square, where all the roads in the city meet. It is the main communication, tourist and historical hub, where the royal palace once stood. From the square, you can enter the popular pedestrian street in the city, passing through the city gate, which is also the triumphal arch Arco da Rua Augusta. Rua Augusta serves as a pedestrian street and is a shopping avenue with many shops and restaurants. Here you can see various forms of street art and take a walk to Rossio Square. Lisbon is located on hills, which is why in the late 19th and early 20th centuries several elevators were built, which are worth seeing in Lisbon. Currently, four historic elevators are in operation, but only one of them moves vertically. A ride on the Santa Justa elevator is one of the most popular attractions in Lisbon. You can go up to the observation deck, which can also be accessed from the Carmelite Monastery. The Convento do Carmo is a complex consisting of a monastery and a Carmelite church, which currently houses the Archaeological Museum. Destroyed in the 1755 earthquake, it was only slightly rebuilt. It is worth visiting this complex during a weekend in Lisbon. The Church of St. Roch is unremarkable from the outside, but its interior hides real treasures. It is considered by many to be the most beautiful example of the Baroque in Lisbon. The Church of St. Roch, like most churches in Lisbon, can be visited for free. The viewpoint of St. Peter of Alcantara is a great place to see Lisbon from above. From here, there is a beautiful view of the Baixa, Alfama and Graca districts, as well as the Castle of St. George located on the hill. The Bica Elevator is one of four historic elevators in Lisbon and in our opinion the most photogenic. It is one of the biggest attractions in Lisbon. Sightseeing in Lisbon also includes a ride on the famous yellow tram number 28, which goes uphill through narrow streets. It is an extremely popular attraction in Lisbon. The viewpoint of Our Lady of the Hill offers one of the best panoramas in the city due to the fact that it is the highest viewpoint in Lisbon. What else is worth seeing in Lisbon? We have another viewpoint for you, the Miradouro da Graça. Next to it is the Igreja da Graca. Alfama, the oldest district of Lisbon, consists of many narrow and steep streets, thanks to which it has its own unique atmosphere. Sightseeing in Lisbon cannot be successful without visiting Alfama. In Alfama, there is the church of Santa Engracia. It was built in the 17th century on a Greek cross plan. In the 20th century, the National Pantheon was created there. At the foot of the National Pantheon, twice a week you can find the Thieves' Market, an antique market. Sightseeing in Lisbon also includes the Se Cathedral, which is located at the foot of Alfama. It was built in the 12th century, in Romanesque style, and commemorates the liberation of the city from the Moors. Not far from the Se Cathedral is the Church of St. Anthony. The colorful art installation that is located next to it attracts attention and allows you to take a photo. It is one of the most photogenic attractions in Lisbon. The Castel Sant'Antonio was built in the 12th century by the Moors. It was destroyed during the 1755 earthquake and fell into ruin over the years. It was not restored until the 20th century. Lisbon has 16 official viewpoints. One of the most popular is the viewpoint of the Sun Gates. It offers one of the best views of the red roofs of Alfama and the rest of the city. Azulejos are thin ceramic tiles that can be seen at every turn in Portugal. Lisbon is home to the largest Azulejos Museum, where you can learn about the technique of producing these tiles and their history. Be sure to visit this place during your weekend in Lisbon. The 25th of April Bridge, also known as the Vasco da Gama Bridge, was completed in the late 20th century and is one of the longest suspension bridges in Europe. The Cristo Rei Monument is located in Almada on a hill overlooking Lisbon. It depicts Christ with his arms outstretched, resembling the position on the cross. If you are wondering what else to see in Lisbon, we suggest the Belem Tower, which was built in the 16th century as a fortress protecting the entrances to the port of Lisbon. In the Belem district, you will find the Monument to the Discoveries, which commemorates people who contributed to Portugal and the era of great geographical discoveries. In front of the monument is a marble mosaic with a diameter of 50 meters. The Hieronymites Monastery is one of the most popular attractions in Lisbon and the Belem district. It was built in the 16th century in the Manueline style.
