Lisbon 3-Day Itinerary: Explore Without Exhaustion!
Lisbon charms visitors with its colorful decay, vintage trams, and legendary pastries—but its steep hills are infamous! Luckily, affordable Bolt rides make sightseeing effortless. Here’s my no-sweat route, organized by district: 🌊 Day 1: Belém (Flat & Walkable) Best at sunset! Belém Tower – Iconic 16th-century fortress. Monument to the Discoveries – Nautical history carved in stone. 25th April Bridge – Lisbon’s "Golden Gate." Jerónimos Monastery – UNESCO gem (€10). Pastéis de Belém – The original custard tart (since 1837!). 🚋 Day 2: Old Town Highlights Bica Funicular – Photo op at Livraria Antiquaria do Calhariz. Santa Justa Lift – Neo-Gothic elevator (€5.30). Miradouro de Santa Luzia – Tile-covered viewpoint. Lisbon Cathedral – Romanesque-meets-Gothic.
