14 days in Lisbon Itinerary

Built on seven hills, Lisbon has experienced a renaissance in recent years, making it the cultural star of Portugal.

Get some historical perspective at Mosteiro dos Jeronimos and Park and National Palace of Pena. Escape the urban bustle at Praia da Nazare and Pego Beach. Venture out of the city with trips to Borboletario Tropical (in Santa Margarida), Basilica de Nossa Senhora do Rosario de Fatima (in Fatima) and Alcobaca (Monastery of Alcobaca & Paredes da Victoria Beach). There's lots more to do: contemplate the long history of Batalha Monastery, contemplate in the serene atmosphere at Templo Romano de Evora (Templo de Diana), enjoy the sand and surf at Ilha do Pessegueiro, and explore the historical opulence of Castelo dos Mouros.
