Lisbon Historic Center, Portugal (Part 1)

Lisbon is one of the most beautiful capitals in Europe. Yes definitely. The romantic spirit of travel of the era of the great geographical discoveries reigns here, carrying the memory of the times when Portugal was one of the most significant world powers through the centuries. An ancient fortress and pompous palaces, wide squares and stunning architecture, the color of narrow shabby streets, along which creaky old trams ride, multi-colored facades and roofs - and all this against the backdrop of a stunning sea facade, pierced by the bright sun and haze of heat. Built at the end of the 14th century as a Benedictine monastery by Afonso Àlvares, we are getting closer to São Bento's Palace.Classified as a national monument, it became the Portuguese state's property following the religious orders' disappearance. It's Neoclassical architecture uses Greco-Roman elements and is the seat of the parliament of Portugal. Lisbon is one of the oldest cities globally and probably the oldest in all of Western Europe. There are many historical sites, some of which date back to times when the Romans ruled here, or even older. Archaeologists even found evidence that already around 1200 BC., the Phoenicians carried on a lively trade here.There are a thousand and one ways to discover the Portuguese capital. Walking through the city is probably the best way to perceive the atmosphere of its different districts. However, the old streetcars could be the emblem of the city. It is an authentic historical heritage that allows you to travel back in time and discover the city's steep streets.The Principe Real Garden, an English-inspired park, is a perfect example of the Romantic Lisbon style of the 19th century. Colorful mansions from the same period surround the green space.It is a natural refuge from the city's busy streets.
