Neighbourhoods in Lisbon
Lisbon is built on seven hills, that is one of the reasons you’ll notice a lot of differences between its neighborhoods. If you’re going to discover Lisbon on foot, you’ll also notice that each neighborhood has a different atmosphere. Lisbon is too big to discover in 3 days.
