Lisbon map and area information
Lisbon, cidade das sete colinas (city of the seven hills) is one of the most picturesque capital cities in Europe.
At the mouth of the river Tagus and on the coast of the Atlantic, this hilly city is rich in history, reflected in its old buildings and narrow cobbled streets.
Famous for a particular style of ceramic and mosaic, Lisbon, with the country’s main seaport, also has strong maritime links; an ancient fishing culture, a proud stance in sea exploration, past as well as present, alongside its great variety of seafood cuisine.
