ALFAMA

First, some sport (as usual in Lisbon, actually) : I walked to the Panteao Nacional. Good to know : Lisbon is called “7 hills” for a GOOD reason, trust me !

Igreja Sao Vicente da Fora

And I took the “Electrico” (Tram 28) to the Miradouro da Santa Luzia,

where you can enjoy a drink with a view 😉

After some roaming,

I took the Electrico again to Igreja Sé de Lisboa

Casa dos Bicos

Praça do Comercio

BAIRRO ALTO

Elevador da Gloria

At the top of the Elevador, you can enjoy the view

from the Miradouro de Sao Pedro de Alcantara

And roam in these beautiful streets

Assembleia da Republica – Estrela

BELEM

Mosteiro dos Jeronimos

Praça do Imperio

Padrao dos Descobbrimentos

Torre de Belem
