I would advice you to go to SIntra (just outside Lisbon) and to Belém (part of Lisbon)!!

You can also take a look at my profile, coz I wrote a review on Lisbon, since I went there last Dec!

Hi! Lisbon is a great city, full of history and character... As the previous post suggested, do go to belem, just a short tram ride away from center of lisbon. It is beautiful and historic town. Sintra is a train ride away and is a worthy day trip.

In Lisbon, do visit the Castle, and bring your walking shoes, you are gonna need them :)

You must visit the São Jorge castle, the downtown area (good for shopping), Belem tower, Padrão dos Descobrimentos monument, and in this area you also have the presidential palace. You also have to try the famous Belém pastry (delicious). Bairro Alto (Lisbon typical area) is also a good place to visit. And of course the typical bus tour is a must (this way you see a bit more of Lisbon).
Enjoy

Ok, I love Lisbon and someday I would love to come back. As far as I can tell, there are not a whole lot of historical sights. What I really liked about it is that it was not crowded. There are not many tourists. I don’t think many people know abo…city. It was beautiful, with all the city lights and bridge (the one that looks like the Golden Gate Bridge ) was lit up as well. All the benches were filled, so we just sat on the ground against the fence for about ½ hour. I think… Part 3 of 3 of my Fall Break. Portugal

My boyfriend and I don't really like celebrating New Year's Eve.. it's always the same.. so we decided to go abroad to celebrate New year's Eve. And so we went to Lisbon. We heard that New year's Eve in Lisbon supposed to be great :) …city and took tram 28 to the top of the hills. The view was really great although it was a bit foggy. It's quite steep and so the tram (jammed with tourists ;)) had some difficulties going up! After we walked around a bit and visited… Lisbon, a wonderful city
