Reading time: 3 minutes
Located on the right bank of the Tagus
river, near its mouth, Lisbon is one of the oldest cities in the world and the
oldest city in Western Europe. The strong presence of the river reflects a
white light that is admired by everyone and is known for inspiring writers,
poets, photographers and film-makers throughout its history.
Its historical centre is formed by seven hills, which you can explore on foot,
by the tram or by the funicular. One of the advantages of the Portuguese
capital is the Mediterranean climate, making it easier and more pleasant to
visit during the whole year.
For those who are visiting the Portuguese capital, we have prepared a 5-day itinerary to ensure you have everything you need on your checklist!
