šµš¹ Lisbon | A Summer Painted in Orange
Orange isnāt just a color in Lisbonāitās a vibe. From sun-drenched buildings to citrus-infused dishes, this city radiates joy! š³ļø Cruise Stop Hack Luggage storage: Most shops refused, but we found a cheap spot near the metro (life saver!). š Cheap Thrills Bolt taxis = Lisbonās secret! ā¬3-15 for cross-town ridesāwhy walk in 35°C heat? š Coastal Itinerary 1ļøā£ Miradouro da Senhora do Monte or Santa Luzia Pick one for postcard views of red roofs meeting the Atlantic. 2ļøā£ Bica Funicular *Skip the ā¬3.80 ride/queue*āhike up to Lg. Calhariz for the perfect tram shot (right side > left!). 3ļøā£ Commerce Square ā Rua Augusta Arch ā SĆ© Cathedral Stroll past shops, snap the arch, peek into the 12th-century cathedral. 4ļøā£ BelĆ©m Trio Tower of BelĆ©m, Discoveries Monument, and Jerónimos Monastery (so massive we skipped the 2-hour line). Hot take: The "worldās first" egg tart (PastĆ©is de BelĆ©m) was overratedāKFC does it better. š„ Honorable Mentions (If Time Allows) Castle of SĆ£o Jorge Oceanarium Time Out Market Santa Justa Lift #LisbonVibes #OrangeSummer #EuropeOnABudget
