1. Ride the Tram 28<\/h2>\n

Lisbon is famous for its historic, rattling tram lines. The most iconic is the Tram 28 which has been rattling up the steep hills, cobbled roads and through the old Alfama district for decades.

As you stroll through the neighbourhood, take in the great sites like the Lisbon Cathedral and enjoy the beautiful squares that are lined with al fresco cafes.<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

3. Party the Night Away on Pink Street<\/h2>\n

Bairro Alto is the classic hangout for partying until dawn and is home to the hip Park bar – a rooftop parking lot turned into a cool garden terrace. 180\u00ba views of Lisbon can be enjoyed from here, mojito in hand, of course. Potted plants and wooden furniture provide a natural, cool and hip vibe. However, the famous \u2018Pink Street\u2019 is a contender for the title of the best nightlife in the city due to the young crowds that gather and enjoy the late night joints on offer.<\/p>\n

6. Relish in the Street Art<\/h2>\n

Lisbon boasts incredible street art, which can be found across the city.

<\/a> <\/a><\/p>\n

9. Take a Step Back in Time<\/h2>\n

Ask any ceramic aficionado and they’ll tell you that Portugal is the place to go for tiles. Lisbon offers a great National Tile Museum, which is dedicated to the cities old and new tiles.
