Recently I spent 4 days in Lisbon, here's a selection of pics I made. The weather was far from perfect for a photo tour, anyway...
Right before entering Lisbon from the south through the 25 de Abril bridge you see on the right Almada’s Cristo Rei, the first of many charming places to behold the city. So let’s go up!
Due south you find Lisbon ‘lovely’ suburbs like Almada. Nothing to see or do here (apart from Cristo Rei) Well, in the future they might have a “Luis Figo museum” since he grew up here
Lisbon & the bridge
This pic was heavily inspired by Justme
We crossed the bridge and started the visit in Restauradores square:
Eden Theatre (left) and Palácio Foz (right)
Stylish Hard Rock Café (a former cinema)
Portuguese flags everywhere. The Euro 2004 flooded the country with flags and many of them haven’t been removed.
Rossio train station
Rossio square
This is a peep show
And this is a record shop
Elevador da Glória, essential to overcome Lisbon’s steep streets
Town hall square
Town hall
Comércio square
There was a photo exhibition going on
Augusta street
Santa Justa Elevator, it saves you time and sweat to reach Bairro Alto quarter.
Going up to the castle in a tram, yahooooo
St. Luzia
Views from the castle
Alfama quarter
“Escadinhas do Terreiro do Trigo” is not the world’s narrowest street, but its name may be the longest among the narrowest
Casa dos Bicos
Chiado quarter was known for its cafes, book shops and bohemian living. It was burnt down by a fire in 1988 but now has come to life again.
Well, it’s Ascensor da Bica, which helps locals and tourists defeat very steep streets with no effort.
From the top this is what you see (not the best hour to take the pic though :bash: )
A street nearby
Docas. A very nice place to dine out and have a beer with friends. It is by the Tagus river, under the 25 de Abril bridge. Sorry for the pic quality, but my camera wasn't made to take night pictures.
Belem quarter
Belem tower
Mosterio dos Jerónimos.
The newest area of Lisbon, Parque das Nações. New office buildings, bars, expensive residentials... and high-rise activity too!
Arrival in a double-decker suburban train
Oriente train station
Aquarium
Taken from Vasco da Gama tower
Eduardo VII park
To have another great view over Lisbon, take the boat to the other bank of the Tagus river in Cacilhas.
Panorama!
Finally, and after exhausting tour days, it's time for relax at Pavilhão Chinês, one of Lisbon's largest and most singular bars decorated with thousands of toy soldiers, figures, models, etc etc etc....
Lisboa é uma belíssima cidade, consegue manter muito bem conservados os prédios históricos e vejo que agora tem muitas estruturas modernas, a que mais me impressionou foi a estação de trem.
Ó que linda que e a nossa capital!
Finalmente as fotos aparecem...Ja agora,alguem sabe que edifico grotesco e este azul aqui no meio da parte historica?Esta muito mal localizado,ate parece taveirada....
boas again..phobos aquilo né uma fachada é uma tela a tapar a fachada.
Bem..Lisboa..é simplesmente única..sem palavras..arquitectura propria sem duvida!...pá..linda..5 estrelas..tem é de se ter cuidado com os atentados que dse vão fazendo por aí :\
^mesmo antiga tira optimas fotos,e ela so tem 2 MP!
A minha decepcionou-me muito,eu quando comprei-a(uma sony cyber-shot P 71 com 3 MP)dissseram-me que era muto boa,mas logo que eu comecei a tirar as fotos eu vi que a definiçao das cores era pessima.Eu estou a pensar em trocar essa merda por uma de 8 MP agora,tambem a sony,mas ja nem sei se a sony e assim tao boa quanto dizem...
