City overview
Lisbon is a Tagus River capital built across seven hills, with Alfama lanes, Baixa Pombalina grids, Bairro Alto climbs, and Belem monuments showing how the 1755 earthquake and Atlantic navigation shaped the city. Baixa and Chiado make the central walking spine, Alfama and Graca hold the older Moorish street pattern, and Parque das Nacoes adds the Expo 98 riverfront east of the center.
Food & drink
Lisbon food centers on pasteis de nata, bacalhau a bras, grilled sardines, caldo verde, bifana sandwiches, amêijoas à Bulhao Pato, ginjinha, and seafood rice. Time Out Market in Mercado da Ribeira, Rua das Portas de Santo Antao, Belem pastry shops, Alfama fado restaurants, and Cais do Sodre counters give the most useful first eating route.

Neighborhoods
1Alfama and Graca
Alfama and Graca are steep, irregular, and old, with Sao Jorge Castle, Lisbon Cathedral, fado rooms, miradouros, tile walls, and tram 28 passing tight corners.
2Baixa and Rossio
Baixa is the 1755 earthquake rebuild, with Rua Augusta, Praca do Comercio, Rossio, Praca da Figueira, and flat streets that make the easiest first-day walk.
3Chiado and Bairro Alto
Chiado and Bairro Alto sit above Baixa with Carmo ruins, theatres, bookstores, Rua Garrett shops, tiny bars, fado rooms, and elevators or funiculars for the climb.
4Belem and Ajuda
Belem and Ajuda face the Tagus with Jeronimos Monastery, Belem Tower, the Monument to the Discoveries, the coach museum, gardens, and pasteis de nata queues.
5Cais do Sodre and Santos
Cais do Sodre and Santos link ferry piers, the Time Out Market, Pink Street bars, design shops, and train access to Cascais and Estoril.
6Parque das Nacoes
Parque das Nacoes is Expo 98 Lisbon, with Oriente station, the Oceanarium, river promenades, cable cars, modern hotels, and broad bike paths.
Day trips
30km / about 40min by train from Rossio station
Sintra
Sintra has Pena Palace, the Moorish Castle, Quinta da Regaleira, forested hills, and a cooler microclimate. Start early because palace buses and ticket lines crowd by late morning.
32km / about 40min by train from Cais do Sodre
Cascais
Cascais adds beaches, marina walks, Boca do Inferno, and easy access to Estoril along the coast. It is the simplest sunny afternoon outside Lisbon.
135km / about 1.5h by train or bus from Lisbon
Evora
Evora has Roman temple columns, medieval walls, whitewashed Alentejo streets, and the Chapel of Bones. It is a longer day than Sintra but gives a different inland Portugal frame.
Getting around
Use Navegante cards for Lisbon Metro, Carris buses, trams, funiculars, suburban trains, and ferries; metro lines are strongest for airport, Baixa-Chiado, Santa Apolonia, and Oriente. Tram 15E reaches Belem from the center, tram 28E crosses Alfama and Bairro Alto hills, and walking works best inside Baixa, Chiado, and Alfama if cobblestones and slopes are manageable.
