| Page Views: 578 Last Visit to Lisbon: - | Picturesque capital. by breughel - last update: Jun 15, 2007 |
If you are in search of magnificent monuments as those who attracted and seduced you in the other European capitals it is not in Lisbon that you will find them.
I say it in all honesty since I visited this country five times and would gladly return.
The charm of Lisbon, because Lisbon has charm, lies in its picturesque, its opening on the Ocean by the Tagus river and its welcoming and often multilingual population.
I shall not describe here my wanderings on foot or by tram through the hills of Lisbon, but describe some remarkable museums of international value. |
|  | Pittoresque capitale. Si vous êtes à la recherche de splendides monuments comme ceux qui vous ont attiré et séduit dans d'autres capitales européennes ce n'est pas à Lisbonne que vous les trouverez. Je le dis en toute franchise d'autant plus que j'ai séjourné cinq fois dans ce pays et que j'y retournerais volontiers.
Le charme de Lisbonne, car Lisbonne a du charme, réside dans son pittoresque, son ouverture sur l'Océan par le Tage et son accueillante population souvent multilingue.
Je ne décrirai pas ici mes errances à pied ou en tram à travers les collines de Lisbonne, mais quelques musées remarquables au plan culturel européen. |

Those are splendid places to pay a visit! Thanks for your detailed and interesting page! | wandeljp Wed Jun 24, 2009 19:18 UTC
Curieux de voir comment Lisbonne l a évolué au sein de l'Europe depuis 15 ans , date de ma visite. Ah le délicieux "bacaliau " Il faisait trop beau pour visiter les musées alors. Mais c'est une lacune que a combler un jour! Vas-tu à Cracovie? Amitiès, JP | TheWanderingCamel Mon Feb 16, 2009 12:44 UTC
I've long had a soft spot for Catherine of Braganza, England's Charles ll little Portuguese queen. It was gratifying to find out what happened to her after he died - Regent of Portugal no less, her tomb in the monasterry at Belem. Lisbon chamed me too. | scottishvisitor Wed Jan 7, 2009 21:51 UTC
The maritime museum is most interesting I know how long the mast boats take to build - my Dad made me one years ago and I still treasure it!! Stay warm and away from outdoors!! |
