Lisbon was once one of the richest empires during the Age Of Discovery, and it is one of the oldest cities in Europe — even older than London, Paris and Rome! Today Portugal isn’t as financially grand as it once used to be, however a lot of signs of their rich past still remain with monuments, palaces and cathedrals (in the Manueline style — carved stone that looks like a nautical styled twisted & knotted rope from a ship). Lisbon felt more laid back than Spain (if that’s possible), with delicious food, and beautiful weather.
