When it comes to staggering scenery – it doesn\u2019t get much better than Lisbon. Facing out towards the Tagus River and spread across seven hills, this coastal capital lends itself to Portugal\u2019s premier views<\/a>. And with a wealth of \u2018miradouros\u2019 (viewpoints) to savour them from, this enchanting city knows how to leave a lasting impression.<\/strong><\/p>\n

But as the reputation of this leading city break destination<\/a> continues to grow, so does its visitors. While ticking off well-known scenic spots is a must, we recommend taking to more secluded areas for exceptional vistas without the hustle and bustle. Our guide to Lisbon\u2019s hidden viewing gems puts you one step ahead of the rest.<\/p>\n

Miradouro da Senhora do Monte<\/h2>\n

Our search for Lisbon\u2019s best-kept secrets starts from the highest peak of the city. We must confess, this hillside triumph wouldn\u2019t qualify as a hidden gem. In fact, it\u2019s a well-known vantage point but crowds favour visits to other miradouros across the capital – giving it the same exclusive feel you\u2019d expect from an undiscovered spot.<\/span><\/p>\n

Just one glance at its glorious views and you\u2019ll be left scratching your head as to why its overlooked. But their loss, is your gain. As well as less crowds and a romantic ambience to savour, you\u2019ll get to enjoy the best panorama of Lisbon – especially during a sunset!<\/span><\/p>\n

How to get the best Instagram shot: <\/b>With so much to fit into one picture, a 360-degree shot is a must. Wait for the sun to set, get right up against the railing and you\u2019ll capture the majesty of what lies beneath.<\/span><\/p>\n

Where is it?<\/b> Gra\u00e7a neighbourhood<\/span><\/p>\n

How do I get here? <\/b>Hop on the 28E tram and get off at the Gra\u00e7a stop. You can buy a return ticket (\u20ac3.00) at the on-board ticket machine. However, purchasing one is easier said than done. As Lisbon\u2019s most popular route, carriages are often crowded.<\/span><\/p>\n

To avoid any stress, we recommend getting the 24-hour ticket. At \u20ac6.40, it not only provides great value, but can only be purchased at the metro station – meaning you can make your journey all about the scenery!<\/span><\/p>\n

Did you know?<\/b> Lisbon has been named the \u2018World\u2019s Leading CIty Destination\u2019 for two consecutive years by the World Travel Awards.<\/span><\/p>\n

It has also been shortlisted for the 2019 prize, meaning a third award in a row is on the cards.<\/span><\/p><\/blockquote>\n
