One of my favorite things about Lisbon is all of the lookout spots, or miradouros, where people hang out and appreciate the colorful skyline of the city. Being such a steep, hilly city, there are apparently over 30 known miradourous around Lisbon.
Tucked down on the country’s southwestern coast, lagos is a surf town on the atlantic full of insane cliffs and caves on beautiful beaches, some of my favorite architecture, and the best vibe of surfers and travelers. Life is lived slowly and though there are a good amount of people it is still so peaceful.
Nestled in the hills of southern Lisbon is the Alfama neighborhood, one of the oldest, and most beautiful neighborhoods in the entire city. The neighborhood is filled with the typical bright tiled neoclassical architecture, and the small, narrow roads light up at night with music and people dancing spilling into the streets from the fado bars and small little hole in the wall restaurants.
