Question

What are some of the 'must see' places and things everyone should do on a trip to Lisbon, Portugal?

Answer 1

Visit the Pena Palace up on the hillside, super cool!!!  Also they have a really cool bridge that reminds me of the Golden Gate bridge. They have a really cool cathedral and ooh yeah check out the belem tower. They have a commerce Center there as well and plenty to do around there too.  

Just wander around, its such a beautiful place!  And if you're into seafood, they have plenty of great seafood as well as desserts.  The portuguese people are super friendly when I was there and very welcoming.

Have fun!
