When my husband and I were on vacation in Lisbon, our tour guide drove us here, and he offered to take a photo of me under the pretty umbrellas. We were there during the daytime, and many strangers were standing on the street and ended up in my photo, and I could Magic-Eraser only some of them. I hear that this street bustles even more for nightlife. The street is not long, so we were there for just a short time.

Seeing a piece of Portuguese history in person is something I've always wanted to do. Since this castle is atop the city, it offers some of the best views of this bustling town.

There's a small museum on the garden grounds which features information about the castle's former residents and very cool artifacts like pottery and even bones. I learned a lot about the castle and Lisbon itself including its roots in Islam which I found very interesting. The castle itself is merely ruins at this point but you can still climb up to many of the towers for even better viewpoints of the city below. The peacocks on the grounds were amazing too and we got to see baby peacocks! There's snacks and a gift shop too but we didn't stick around for more than the sightseeing. It was about 15 euros per person for entry, as far as I can remember. I'd recommend visiting this spot!

Santa Justa Elevator is Lisbon's wildly unnecessary yet somehow charming vertical solution to the city's geography problem. This iron beauty connects the Baixa district to the Bairro Alto, which is code for flat ground to very not flat ground. Lisbon, famously built on seven hills, decided stairs were too obvious. So they commissioned Raoul Mesnier du Ponsard, a student of Eiffel, to drop a mini Eiffel Tower in the middle of the city and call it an elevator. Classy.
