The R&K Guide To Lisbon

Lisbon is a calm, compact jewel of cobbled streets and tile-clad buildings on the Tagus estuary, just a short train ride from the sea. Until very recently it had a secretive, forgotten feel. Now, tourism is booming and there’s a confident buzz in the air, but the banalities of globalization are still less evident here than elsewhere. Lisbon is a place to wander the backstreets, climb the many hills, take in the views, and sample Portugal’s wildly underrated food, wine, and music.
