Lisbon in spring

Placeholder text — replace with your own story.

We arrived on a grey morning that turned bright by noon, which, we learned, is how most April days go here. The plan was simple: walk until our legs gave up, then take the tram back up the hill.

Where we stayed

A small guesthouse in Graça with a terrace facing the river. Breakfast was coffee, bread and the sound of the 28 rattling past.

Worth it

• The viewpoint at Senhora do Monte just before sunset.
• A slow lunch in Belém, and the tarts, of course.
• Getting lost in Alfama without a map.
