20 things to do in Lisbon, Portugal | Top Attrions Travel Guide:\r
\r
Our first stop of the day was Sao Jorge Castle, which is an old Moorish fortification that sits on a hill overlooking Lisbon and the Tagus River. You can get some nice panoramic views of the city from here, and they also have peacocks roaming the grounds.\r
\r
Miradouro das Portas do Sol is one of the many look out points in Lisbon that offers postcard-perfect views of the city. This particular terrace overlooks the Alfama district and it is always popular with tourists.\r
\r
Carmo is a mediaeval convent that was ruined during the 1755 earthquake, and today it is used as an archaeological museum. Its a strange feeling walking down the ruined nave of the church and seeing blue skies above your head, but thats exly what makes it worth a visit. \r
\r
Another place to visit is Belem Tower. The tower was built on the banks of the Tagus River, and it was meant toas both a defense system and a ceremonial gateway into Lisbon.\r
\r
The Jeronimos Monastery is one of the most visited sights in Lisbon. Its one of the best examples of Late Gothic Manueline architecture, so have a close look at the intricate detailing when you visit. \r
\r
A fun way to get around Lisbons hilly streets is by riding the trams. There are different lines across the city, but #28 is the most popular one with visitors.\r
\r
The Santa Justa lift is an elevator that connects the lower streets of Baixa with Carmo Square, and it is the only remaining vertical elevator in Lisbon. Though it is meant to serve a functional role, it is also quite popular with visitors who find the elevator a novel idea. \r
\r
