Lisbon has cultural diversity, laid-back feel and architectural time warp, and you have one of the most enjoyable cities in Europe and also one of the most economical. Lisbon's position on seven low hills beside a river once lured traders and settlers, and it's still a stunning site.
Lisbon´s heart are wide, tree-lined avenues graced by Art Nouveau buildings, mosaic pavements and street cafes. Seen from the river - one of the city's many great viewpoints, Lisbon is an impressionist picture of low-rise ochre and pastel, punctuated by church towers and domes.
