Landmarks and Historic Quarters
This selection links Lisbon's riverfront monuments with its oldest quarters, from Belém Tower and Jerónimos Monastery to Alfama and the Castle of São Jorge.
Why go
It is a useful way to read Lisbon through two contrasting settings. Belém places Manueline monuments beside the Tagus and makes the city's maritime history visible in stone, while Alfama, the Cathedral and the Castle hill reveal a denser, older city of slopes, streets and outlooks. The stops work as several focused combinations, not one rushed circuit.
Useful to know
Keep Belém's monuments together on one outing along the Tagus.
Give Alfama, the Cathedral and the Castle hill a separate walking block because of the slopes and narrow streets.
Treat the list as a set of combinations rather than trying to cover every landmark in one day.
