Lisbon by day :
To see Lisbon by day, the best is to use the transports.
This is the city of the seven hills, and all together they make Lisbon beautiful, it gets more difficult to keep going up and down all day. So, grab a day pass and just hop around in the buses and trams.
The bus tickets are good for buses and the trams. There are the most funny to ride, and there are some that cross all the best spots in town.
Lisbon by night:
Welcome to Lisbon. In this quiet sleepy town, people party hard. That's a fact. And if you think you can handle it, better prepare to stay awake till sunrise.
Every night, you have different places to go:
Lux Frágil ; Kapital; Kremlin; Hard Rock Café; Clandestino; Casa da Cerveja; Chapito; Divino; Doca St. Amaro; Buddha Bar; Coconuts; Alcântara Bar; Dock´s Club; Amo-te Chiado.
Of course don’t forget the Portuguese music, the “FADO” music, there are o lot of places to go in “Bairro Alto”.
Around Lisbon (Day trips):
Lisbon is not only the city... just nearby you have some great beaches in Estoril, or Cascais, the wonderful Sintra, a small city that looks like it came out of a fairy tale with the kind of atmosphere you find only in the movies , the cape "Cabo da Roca", which is the most western spot in Europe...
