Definitely a castle you should visit when you're visiting Lisbon. If you're staying in Lisbon,…read moreyou'll see it when you are in the downtown area. Do you see it? 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. You probably just need a couple of hours to tour the grounds.

Well worth the hike up the hill and price of admission! I really enjoyed visiting Castelo de S…read more Jorge on one of our last days in Lisbon. The views from the top are spectacular. 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!

I hate that this place shares a name with one of the most bigoted individuals in the world, but…read morealas, the Portuguese queer community is here and we are not letting down. Trumps was my first stop in Lisbon after 21 hours of flying from the U.S. I came here when Yvie Oddly (RPDR S11) was the featured performer and had a blast. Entry was 20€ which included a free drink, and is apparently higher than normal - likely because of the guest of the night. GET THERE EARLY (i.e. at midnight) in order to avoid a long entry line. The club itself was pretty well laid out. There is a coat check right at the front and you are led downstairs to two different rooms - a dance hall and a performance stage. I spent my entire night inside the performance hall where the queens of Trumps was DJing and performing, and I was blown away. The drag scene in Lisbon is top notch and I was VERY impressed. My Tequila Sunrise was juice, let's be real. But I didn't come here to drink, but to see good performers entertain me. I got great drag queens, good throwback 2000s music, and a fun time. My only complaint was that the DJ wasn't very good, as it sounded like they were just hitting 'next' on their Apple Music player. But the queens performing were phenomenal! Note: most of the people here seemed to be very young gays in their early 20s.

If I could give this place 0 stars I would…read more Listed below are my grievances: 1. There are barely any gays. 2. The drinks are extremely diluted - not worth the overpriced €10 cover fee. 3. Os empregados nao sao gays! 4. The club is so poorly lit and too bright. Really an uncomfortable atmosphere augmented by poor projected media. 5. The music and general environment was extremely tacky. 6. Cheira mal! Ignore your guide book and skip this joint! There are better places to go to In town

First off, the cashier at entrance was the nicest person! Thank you for your kindness on 10/2/25…read more You are a wonderful example of human kindness. These gardens were beautiful, set in a magically tranquil spot. The paths went on & on. We all felt wonderful in here!

We've been in Lisbon for several weeks, and have by-passed this garden a number of times while…read morewalking to various surrounding eateries in the neighborhood; but, always there's been a line to get in, so we've never stopped. Well, as we close-out 2024, and with this being a slow Monday for us, we decided to give it a try. We arrived at the Jardim Botânica da Universidade de Lisboa--that's a mouthful!--at around 10:00 am, and there was no line. YAY!!! The entry fee of $5 per adult seemed very reasonable (we didn't do the adjoining natural museum next door). I'll start by saying that one needs an open-mind coming here, without too much expectation, because you're not gonna get some kind of spectacularly verdant tropical oasis (especially at this time of year with most deciduous trees having already shed its leaves). What you will get for your 5-bucks is a peaceful oasis amidst the bustling Príncipe Real, especially along the hubbub and trolley clatter that's Rua da Escola Politecnica. No doubt, on a busy day, perhaps it's not quite so peaceful with tourists and kids clammering about; however, on this particular day, it was very peaceful, very calming. If I lived nearby, I'd certainly pay $5 to find me a bench to do some reading, or perhaps people-watching. Yes, the garden does need some tending to; however, in a jam-packed city like Lisbon, any open space devoted to a garden or park gets two thumbs-up from me! And, too, it was really nice to see parrots doing their thing, and the sounds of birds, over nearby construction cranes and such. And, too, some of those trees were spectacularly ancient! The two Northern California sequoias were an awesome surprise!! The cactus garden held some REALLY old specimens, too! The Australian eucalyptus trees were also huge! Without doubt some of these trees are way long in the making and have been here for a VERY long time, indeed! Some areas were a bit unruly, but that's nature! The adjoining pathway gardens behind of the natural museum, which were separate from the main gardens, was a bit sad-looking and unkempt with nothing open; but, perhaps in the summertime it's more lively and appealing. Still, though, it made for a pleasant stroll to pass the time. Overall, despite some exhibits being closed and/or looking dismantled (the "Sensory Garden," for example), I'm still giving Lisbon's Botanical Gardens the full 5-stars just for being alive in a city that's compromising.... Muito obrigado!!! :D

I have seen a handful of botanical gardens in my day, and this one is not particularly spectacular…read more I would love to be able to say more about this place, but it was just not very interesting. There are signs saying what each plant or tree is, but there is no further information about them. There isn't much variation either, or if there is, it isn't apparent. The bed area up top was somewhat nondescript, though there is a fountain. The greenhouse had a special display of plants from the time of dinosaurs, but it wasn't set up to be particularly enthralling. Moving down the hill you come across more trees, a succulent garden, and what is supposed to be a couple of ponds. We were there in May and they were empty. The butterfly house was also closed. It's a nice green area, but the images that come to mind when I think of a botanical garden do not fit what is here, which is really just a glorified shady park-like area. Luckily the entrance fee of €2 per adult is not terrible, so see it if you want. But my tip would be to check out the dozens of other beautiful (and free!) parks throughout Lisbon ahead of this one.

Best ever dinner with show in Portugal. This dinner show restaurant is own by a famous Michelin…read morestar Portuguese chef José Avillez. The food is amazing with a lot of textures. We have total sixteen courses. Each course has different feelings and very creative. The Show: The show has four persons team. Most of them can dance and sing except one is very good dancer. The show was divided into segments. Begin with cabaret, fado, modern and mixed. The show is a plus to the dinner. Great performance. Some dance puppets dance. The dinner is amazing. We started surprising compliment dish - Minha Rose. The trick is to find out one paddle is eatable. Then follow by four courses of appetizers. I like the most is the taco and control candy four-gras. The main course includes flower paddle ceviche and OX tail are great item to have. They close with many appetizers such as strawberry lipsticks and more. The food and dinner not cheap but worth more.
