Lisbon

by barryg23 - last update: Oct 19, 2006

Lisbon from the Miradouro de Sao Pedro de Alcantar
When we visitied Portugal on a 10 day holiday in 2005 we had initially planned to stay only a couple of days in Lisbon. But the city impressed us so much we spent most of the trip here. Lisbon reminded me a lot of Barcelona - though at a fraction of the price. Everything was such good value and there was so much to see and do.

I returned again in October 2006 for a four day visit as my girlfriend had a work conference here. It was a lovely time of year to visit the city and I really enjoyed visiting the sights again as well as seeing those things I had missed the first time.
