Portugal
Last August, my son and I visited Lisbon. It was my son’s first trip to Europe. All this way to savor a flaky tart. I discovered August is not the best time to go, given the crowds and the heat. My son made me promise that the next time I book a trip to Europe, it would not be in the dead of summer. I told him I promise nothing.

The whole trip was for 10 days. We arrived in Lisbon first, and spent three days there. Lisbon is a beautiful city with a rich history, and its architecture is beautiful, as is most architecture in Europe.
I would have liked to stay longer to see other cities

Praça do Comércio
The town square, Praça do Comércio, is a plaza containing various restaurants and shops. A local shop, O Mundo Fantástico da Sardinha, is located near here. In the plaza, you will find various shops and restaurants of all sorts.
Belém Tower and National Pantheon
Both are historical landmarks located near the Alfama district. Several tours will walk you through the districts and historical sites. The tours cover most of the main parts of the area.
Praça do Comércio and Jerónimos Monastery
It is located near the Tagus river. The monastery. The stone carvings, large pillars, tall stained-glass windows, and a gold-painted wooden display are shown below. The pillars were modeled on palm trees, as the architect loved them and drew inspiration from them for the monastery’s design.
The interior and exterior details make them remarkable. The inside was just as beautiful as the outside. Lisbon has so many beautiful buildings.
Alfama District
The oldest district in Lisbon located near the Tagus River and São Jorge Castle.
The view at the top is beautiful, filled with vendors selling handmade items paintings, jewelry, handbags, and wallets. musicians played their guitars for the crowds. We decided to stay after the tour ended and wander around town, taking in the various sites and views.
