Lisbon

City of seven hills and golden light

The essence

A quiet introduction

Lisbon enchants with its melancholy beauty—pastel-colored buildings tumbling down hillsides, vintage trams climbing steep streets, and fado music drifting from candlelit tavernas. Europe's sunniest capital blends old-world charm with creative energy.
