Portuguese capital Lisbon is a fascinating and comprehensive city. It's also known as "the town of the seven hills", so be prepared for up- and downhill walks. Perched on the edge of the Atlantic Ocean and with a personality split between Western Europe and Northern Africa, Lisbon is a European city like no other. Portugal's capital boasts as grand a cultural and historical heritage as any other major European city, but also a tumbledown, earthier side that sets it apart.
