Likely will need to go there during rough waves to see that. Not going to fault this place for not putting on a show when I'm not there. I would like to think it would be pretty cool for a bit, but if I can't see myself hanging out there for more than 15 minutes, I think the score is fair.

Tinned fish is popular in Portugal, so I wanted to try some. We stopped at another conserveira, and…read morethis place was more reasonably priced. It has been around since 1930. We went with the Portuguese Sardines in Olive Oil and Stuffed Squid. I haven't tried them yet, but have high hopes...

Personally, I think the visit depends on who you get at the counter. Our first time there, we had a…read moregentleman with salt and pepper hair and glasses, who was super quirky and patient explaining the different fish and varieties. There was clearly a love for the different fish and varieties offered. We bought a lot of tins and ended up going back 2 days later after trying a few. This time, however, the 2 people at the counter completely lacked friendliness. They were only interested in getting through their line. One of the guys couldn't even wrap and tie our properly. Complete 180 from the first visit and not as pleasant. Either way, the fish was quite good and the prices are way more reasonable than Comur and other shops. The first patient associate also explained to us fish with skin/bone is cheapest. Also, the intense flavors (pepper, spicy) are the best!

Alfama is Lisbon's oldest neighborhood, probably founded by the Moors in the 8th century, and…read moreduring my vacation I LOVED spending time here. My husband and I walked around Alfama on two days, and we took a tuk-tuk ride here on one day. We saw a maze of steep narrow cobblestone alleys, houses with terracotta roofs, some small restaurants, courtyards, some shops, a tram, and old buildings such as São Jorge Castle, Lisbon Cathedral, and the National Pantheon of Santa Engracia. We enjoyed eating authentic Portuguese foods. Unfortunately, we missed out on listening to Fado music. I was here during daylight, and unlike some of the other Yelp reviewers, I never got lost, I never felt unsafe, and nobody mistreated me. The buildings were obviously old but were not in bad condition or dirty. I read that the neighborhood has been invested in and spruced up in recent years.

Locals were out cooking on the sidewalks like they paid rent for the cobblestones, music was blasting from speakers that definitely failed an EU noise ordinance, and everyone was very merry. Alfama is Lisbon's oldest quarter, which is code for don't even try to use Google Maps. The streets are aggressively charming, like they dare you not to fall in love. This is a must walk around in if you're in Lisbon.

How is it I'm the first to write here about Belem?…read more Beautifully aged, a masterpiece of timeless buildings, architectural marvels and art at every corner. Belem lines the river and is the original location of Lisbon's port, the most western city of Europe as well as the oldest, the epicenter to Africa, Brazil, India and the rest of the known world. There are remains of castles - the Torre de Belem and Belem Palace, museums, parks, as well as the Ponte 25 De April Bridge, the world's 2nd longest suspension bridge. The Padrao dos Descobrimentos jets out with a lovely memorial to the history of sailors with men carved into the stone, standing on a sailboat, facing the river. These are just a few things to see. I would suggest taking a ferry or a boat out on the water and seeing Belem from that point of view as well as seeing the buildings directly. Lines can be long to get in. Another way is to take a tuk tuk tour.
