Miradouro da Senhora do Monte
One of Lisbon's highest viewpoints, offering panoramic views over St George's Castle, the lower town and the Tagus River, and the top choice for watching the sunset.
Miradouro da Senhora do Monte sits at the top of the Graça district, higher than St George's Castle, and its view covers nearly all of Lisbon. It faces the castle and Alfama, with the lower town, the 25 April Bridge and the Tagus River in the distance. Beside the viewpoint are a small chapel and pine trees, and people often play guitar in the evenings; it gets crowded at sunset. Free admission. The nearby Miradouro da Graça has an open-air café kiosk and is worth combining in the same outing. Getting there: get off tram 28 at Graça stop and walk about 7 minutes uphill.
