Best Time To Visit Lisbon

The peak travel months to Lisbon are during the months of May, July, August.

Lisbon is Portugal’s coastal capital city.  São Jorge Castle view encompasses the old city’s pastel-colored buildings such as Tagus Estuary. Nearby, the National Azulejo Museum displays 5 centuries of decorative ceramic tiles. Just outside Lisbon is a string of Atlantic beaches from Cascais to Estoril.

The city’s compact, cobblestoned heart is easily explored on foot or using its trams and funiculars. The Moorish Alfama district has narrow, winding streets and taverns with fado singers. Chiado and its cafes, shopping and seafood restaurants adjoins Bairro Alto. On the waterfront are the ornate 16th-century Jerónimos Monastery and Belém Tower, and, to the east, the ultramodern Parque das Nações district and its massive Oceanário aquarium.
