Destroyed by the earthquake of 1755, the city center, also called “Baixa”, has its streets geometrically planned. Upon the hills that surround the center, the narrow streets of Alfama and Bairro Alto make the city even more interesting for the visitors.

 

In Belém, you will find the Jerónimos Monastery and the Belém Tower. These monuments are witnesses of a maritime past and the Discoveries Era. You can´t miss the famous “Pastéis de Belém”, a local pastry which tourists and locals eat every day.

What you can do...

There´s a lot to see and do in Lisbon. You can walk to the historic center where you can see really old churches. Shop in Portuguese typical stores, or even get on the old tram and stop at St Jorge´s Castle.

 

The city has a wide range of options that fill everyone´s expectations. From the night parties at Bairro Alto to the dancing at Lux, the most famous disco in town. Relaxing in the city parks, do sightseeing and go to coffee shops. And also seeing every corner and feel enchanted all the time.

OEIRAS

Oeiras has several points of cultural interest and many pleasant places for sport and leisure. Here you will find the Fortresses of Saint Bruno and Saint Julião da Barra which mark the coastline. You will also find the fantastic Ocean Pool, right next to Torre, a beach where you can surf in Winter.

Here you can find one of the best examples of Portuguese houses from the eighteenth century, the Palace of Marquês de Pombal. The former residence of the prime minister of King D. José, Marquês de Pombal (Count of Oeiras), follows the Baroque and Rococo. 
In the elegance of its gardens, filled with statues, panels, tiles, and cascades join a fascinating interior, with paintings, frescoes, tiles, and statues of rare quality. The cellar of the Palace is equally impressive because of its monumental scale.
For more recreational outings, visit the Powder Factory (Fábrica da Pólvora), and the Vasco da Gama Aquarium if you are traveling with children.

CAXIAS

Our proud local village! Located only 10 minutes away from Lisbon city center and 15 minutes from Cascais. It´s a village guarded by two ancient fortresses, with a seafront, two white sandy beaches and calm waters (surfing is possible in Wintertime).
Today it prevails as a cultural and landscape complex that grew over the property of the Royal family in Oeiras. Emanating the sophisticated social life of the 18th Century, Quinta Real de Caxias is about 200 meters from the beach and Caxias train station. The lush vegetation characterizes this privileged urban environment. Caxias Station itself is surrounded by one of the gardens and is facing the ocean and the beach.

The city of surf – COSTA DA CAPARICA

Costa da Caparica has a stunning 26km coastline of glorious sandy beaches. With powerful Atlantic waves and beautiful natural scenery. It extends along the western side of the Setubal Peninsula but right in front of Lisbon city center. Only the Tejo river separates both cities. Much of the southern Costa da Caparica coastline lies within the “Arriba Fóssil”. This nature reserve has protected the fossil-rich cliffs coastline from any major development.
The coastline faces the might of the Atlantic Ocean, and onto the wide, sandy beaches powerful waves break, making it ideal for surfing and kitesurfing. From these beaches, fishermen employ traditional Xávega fishing techniques (by hauling the nets onto the beach) and with catches ladened with sardines and lots of other fish species.
