Lisbon, Portugal

In November 2012, we visited Lisbon, Portugal with a small group of relatives for 2 nights. We took an hour flight from Madrid and rented a Renault scenic. It was a raining season in Lisbon so the photos are mostly with grey sky.

We covered the Elevador de Santa Justa, Padrao dos Descobrimentos, Torre de Belém, Cristo Rei Statue,The 25th of April Bridge, Praca do Comercio and walk around the neighbourhoods area of Bairro Alto and Chiado.

On the 2nd day, we drove to Cabo de Roca. It is the most western point of Portugal and continental Europe. The scenery is breathtaking and stunning. And in the evening we headed to Fatima to take a look at the most important catholic shrines.

On the last day, for our breakfast, we went to try the original Portuguese egg tart from Pastéis De Belém. Oh….saying it reminds me of the tasty tarts. I ate 4 of it! It's really a must try when you are at Belém.

Elevador de Santa Justa
I think it is not worth it to go up as the view is not fantastic
