Lisbon is the Portuguese capital and is a beautiful European city to visit. The sun shines almost 290 days a year and the temperature is rarely below 15ºC so you can visit at any time of year. The city has everything to appeal to tourists. With its typical sloping streets, colourful buildings and culinary specialities, Lisbon has become a must for European travellers. Hotels and restaurants in Lisbon cater for all tastes, budgets and criteria. There is plenty to do, from Gothic cathedrals, monasteries and majestic castles to museums, but you'll have even more fun strolling through the narrow streets of the different neighbourhoods when you visit Lisbon.
