Don’t want the summer to end? Then Lisbon has it covered!
This beautiful city offers everything from rich history to excellent restaurants and a great nightlife, so be sure to soak up some of the atmosphere as well as the slowly setting summer sun. Stroll through the historic city taking in sights such as the Castelo de Sao Jorge, and if you want to see even more of Lisbon during your stay then take a trip up on the Elevador de Santa Justa, a funicular railroad built in 1892 offering panoramic views over the city.
