My Travel Itinerary - Lisbon, Portugal
Lisbon has been on my bucket list for a while and I finally decided to visit it as part of my Spain and Portugal trip! While I did not go to Porto, I still enjoyed my time at Lisbon. Lisbon is such a unique city, and I would recommend getting the yellow bus tour to make the most off your trip! The yellow bus ticket allows you to take their bus tour around the Belem side and the modern side of the city with audio guides. We also got the boat ticket to go from Praça da Figueira to Belem. All these are hop on hop off type of tour! With this ticket you also get free access to the normal trams. They also have a separate tour tram ticket that you can consider!
Day 1 - Belem Side
1) Find your way to Belem! By taxi or by the yellow tour bus or other transportation methods. Uber and bolt are popular in Lisbon. Usually cheaper than taxi!
2) Try the Pasteis de Belem Egg Tart
⭐️10/10 €1.5 each
Famous Portuguese egg tarts in Belem! You cannot miss this!
3) Visit Jerónimos Monastery Mosteiro dos Jerónimos
4) Visit Belem Tower
5) Walk around and enjoy the views! Ice cream stands everywhere for you to get water or ice cream!

Lisbon is a vibrant city known for its stunning architecture, rich history, and delectable culinary experiences. When visiting, be sure to check out the Jerónimos Monastery, a UNESCO World Heritage site that showcases Manueline architecture. The Pasteis de Belem, famous for their extraordinary egg tarts, is a must-try when in the Belem district. Another highlight is Belem Tower, which dates back to the 16th century and offers breathtaking views of the Tagus River. For a unique perspective of the city, consider taking a tram ride through the historic neighborhoods. Tram 28 is particularly popular, as it winds through narrow streets and past picturesque landmarks. To fully enjoy your Lisbon experience, facilitate your exploration with public transport or organized tours that will allow you to hop on and off at your leisure. Don't forget to visit Mercado da Ribeira for an authentic taste of Portugal's diverse food offerings. Capture your journey through Instagram-worthy spots like the Instagrammable Pink Street, but aim to go earlier in the day to avoid crowds. Whether you are a foodie, a history buff, or simply looking to soak in the local culture, Lisbon has something to offer for everyone.
Lisbon is my next plan！
