Lisbon is constantly cited as one of the most desired places to habituation, and it comes as no surprise as it is one of the most beautiful and liveable cities in the world, with an incredible heritage.

Belém

Once upon a time, Portugal was the seat of the world’s first global empire, and all the voyages that led to the foundation of the nation’s international presence took place from the harbour located here.

Alfama

This a beautiful maze of cobblestone pathways that are reminiscent of the most exotic romance movies. It is also one of the most traditional places you can find in Portugal.

Chiado & Bica

This is a most peculiar destination because they are two very different neighborhoods that are found just next to each other. It’s a sophisticated and beautiful city that is loved by poets and artists. It’s also a short distance away from many Lisbon Portugal hotels such as the likes of AVANI Avenida Liberdade.

Baixa Pombalina

This is the downtown area of Lisbon and is a bit of a contrast from the rest of the cityscape. This place has consistent and magnificent architecture and is one of the most popular places for tourists. There are many Pombaline structures that are spectacular.
