    Published: Mar 5, 2017 · Modified: Apr 4, 2017 by Mimi · This post may contain affiliate links. As an Amazon Associate I earn from qualifying purchases.

    This is the second of 4 sets of pictures from my travels in Lisbon, Portugal which I shared with Deborah Moore this morning on Fairchild Radio. This post highlights the attractions found in the city centre.

    Thanks for letting me share my experiences with you.

    Xoxo,

    Mimi

    #1. Lisbon City Walk

    Arc de Triomph - Bairro Alto - Chiado

    Arc de Triomphe - Rua Augusta Arch in Praca do Comercio (commerce square) across from Tagus River or commonly known as Terreiro do Paco (Palace Yard). Regarded as the center point of the city, New Years countdowns events were held at the square.

    #4. Igreja de São Roque - Church of Saint Roch

    "Home of the World's Most Expensive Chapel"

    So unassuming on the outside, inside the Church of Sao Roque is a rich interior of gilded chapels, painted ceilings and artistic depictions laid out by mosaic. It is said to house one of the most expensive chapels in the world.

    #5. Seafood and More!

    Situated along the coastline, it's no wonder that seafood is very abundant in Portugal and it is always on the menu.
