Lisbon in 3 Days: Budget Itinerary

  Lisbon was founded by the Romans 2100 years ago and spreads across steep hillsides that overlook the Tagus River. Being one of the oldest cities in the world it is filled with monuments from different styles and times, but its real treasures are the traditional neighborhoods that line these hills and that is what is usually not shown in regular guide books. In this itinerary I take you strolling around its small alleys and cobbled streets, having a glimpse of the river at every corner on one side, and S. Jorge´s castle on the other, and seeing how the city that was once considered “immovable” has managed to evolve without losing its character.As a local (I'm Portuguese and have lived in Lisbon all my life) I can show you what is relevant to get to understand the city and separate it from what is purely for tourists eyes. I also filter all the monuments that exist to advise only the most relevant ones, so you're not wasting time and money seeing similar things several times.The itiner
