Getaway in Lisbon 0
Lisbon was voted the third-best tourist city to visit in the world by The New York Times in 2007; tourism up by 12 per cent in the first quarter of 2008; two new world-class museums (the Berardo Collection of Contemporary Art and the Oriental Museum) opened in the past 18 months; some of the best nightlife anywhere in Europe; fabulous eateries; atmospheric bars; trendy shops; a great live music scene and a bevy of beautiful parks, monuments and palaces… Lisbon boasts all this, plus around 280 sunshine days a year. What more could you ask for?
If modern, cutting-edge architecture is your thing, then there’s nowhere better in Lisbon than the former Expo 98 site, now the Park of Nations. Located in the north-east of the city on the Metro’s Red Line, this landscaped riverside park is a great afternoon out for the kids with Europe’s largest Oceanarium and the science and technology Pavilion to Knowledge.
