Lisbon Day #3
![](http://d2k8htqlk8yn1a.cloudfront.net/img/flags-png/pt.png)
Early morning (7:00AM wake up) this morning to beat the lines to the famous 28E Tram! 🚃 This is an old tram line that starts at Martim Moniz and travels all the way through the city. It was really cool going up all the hills and narrow streets.
📍 LX Factory - we heard this was a cool food market place similar to Time Out. We were so early that not much was open but we found a cafe for a coffee!
📍 Unintentional walk through a random park called Tapada Das Necessidades. There were chickens, baby chicks, roosters, cats, geese and cactus plants everywhere. Also lots of run down old little buildings. We kept saying what is this place, until we got to the other end and read the sign that it used to be an old convent and now has the largest cactus garden in Europe. Very interesting!
📍 Bus to Belém which is a spot west of Lisbon. Visited the Padrãs dos Desccrobimentos and the Belém Tower.
📍 Attempted to catch a ferry across to Cacilhas but ended up in Montijo 😂
📍 Poke Bowl for lunch @ Poke House (Megs recommendation) delicious!
📍 Mercado de Santa Clara (Flea Market only open on Tuesday and Sunday)- very interesting and lots of junk being sold. Relaxed at a park for a while overlooking the water.
📍 Walked to Santa Luzia viewpoint - so pretty! It’s all natural stone with a beautiful arched walkway with vines growing over it, overlooking the city. Love love love!
📍 Miss Can - sooo good! We had to try Portugal’s renowned tinned fish and this place has won an award so we thought perfect! We had mackerel in olive oil, lemon and thyme, tuna in tomato, sardines in chilli oil and stuffed octopus with bread, olives and delicious goats cheese
📍 Drinks and cards @ Miradouoro (Viewpoint) das Portas do Sol. This was so nice and relaxing! 🌅Read more
