    Wow ... 2,500 years of Lisbon history in one small spot. Many tourists walk right by this museum and never know the treasures it holds. Offered by Millennium Bank at their location near the arch and main square. The bank discovered these ruins during an...More

    A challenge to book but worthwhile

    Pre booking for the 3pm English tour meant going there in the morning, being sent around the corner to find the entrance and popping in. That gave time to go to the Roman Theatre, have a great coffee and lunch at Copenhagen Coffee Lab in...More

    A pending candidate to become a World Heritage Site,
    Lisbon's downtown (the "Baixa Pombalina", or simply
    "Baixa") is a perfect example of anti-earthquake
    construction, having been rebuilt following the 1755
    earthquake by the famous Marquês de Pombal (hence its
    name). Its offer is vast: restaurants and cafes in
    Rossio and Restauradores, outlets and shops in the
