Impressions from the Hop on Hop off Citytour
Torre de Belém
Christo-Rei is one of Lisbon‘s iconic monuments.
Visit Lisbon Castle, the Castelo de Sao Jorge, stands majestically above Central Lisbon with best view to old town of Lisbon.
Third Day visit Sintra, the Moon Hill, is a place full of magic and mystery, where Nature and Man have combined in such a perfect symbiosis that UNESCO has granted it World Heritage Site Status.
Cabo da Roca, Portugal
Cabo da Roca is a wild and rugged headland that marks the most westerly point of mainland Europe. The windswept cliffs of Cabo de Roca were believed to be the edge of the world up until the late 14th century and the spectacular, desolate scenery adds to the allure of the location. The raging Atlantic Ocean waves pound the base of the massive jagged cliffs while challenging hiking trails follow the coastal paths.
The isolated atmosphere of Cabo da Roca is enhanced by the very limited development in the area; there is a lighthouse, coffee shop and gift shop but nothing much else. This wind blasted and dramatic landscape is the attraction and this is what most visitors expect for the western edge Europe or end of the world.
Cascais is a delightful Portuguese fishing town, and is the Lisbon’s coastline most popular holiday destination. The town is situated on a beautiful coastline, and during the summer it is a bustling resort, with a buzzing holiday atmosphere.
Lisbon is a city renowned for urban art and a simple walk through the centre or across the historic neighbourhoods we are surprised by works of art.
That's the end of the story. We hope you enjoyed this short presentention. Following some more impression from last evening and flight back home!
