A Portuguese Affair

Lisbon Part 2 - Off the Beaten Path

Listen on

Episode notes

Given how much there is to see and do - not to mention taste - in Downtown Lisbon, it’s easy to understand why some people don’t ever venture further afield. But Downtown is only the start of what Portugal’s capital has to offer.  In this Episode, Catarina takes you on a tour of other parts of the city that you won’t want to miss.


You’ll taste world famous tarts, fresh from the oven at Pastéis de Belém, mix with the locals at one of Docas’ hip bars and uncover bits of Lisbon’s secret history, like an Indian rhinoceros immortalized in a carving on one of Lisbon’s most famous landmarks; and an 18th century palace that remains unfinished. So what are you waiting for? Vamos a isto!
