• Lisbon and the last day of our holiday

    November 29, 2024 in Portugal ⋅ ☁️ 21 °C

    Today is the last day of our Spain and Portugal adventures. We fly back to Melbourne on an early flight tomorrow morning.
    So, we spent the day walking around Lisbon. We were both feeling a little under the weather, so it was a slow walk (there's a lot of steep hills in Lisboa).
    First up the hill to the Castelo de São Jorge, then through the maze of streets that is the Alfama. Walking from here along the river, past Sé de Lisboa, to the Praça do Comércio. We then walked into Chaido for an early dinner, then back to Praça do Comércio to see it lit up at night.
    Finally we walked up through Rue Augusta (the main shopping mall) and saw the famous Elevador de Santa Justa.
