Belém Tower

Belém Tower is one of Lisbon's clearest symbolic monuments, but it works best as part of a complete Belém riverside day.

Jerónimos Monastery

Jerónimos Monastery is one of Lisbon's strongest heritage experiences and justifies structuring a full Belém day around it.

Alfama

Alfama is the part of Lisbon that feels most atmospheric, but it needs pacing and hotel logic because the terrain is part of the experience.
