Lisbon, which is called the "city of seven hills", is the political and economic capital of Portugal. It stretches along the north bank of the River Tagus in the westernmost country of mainland Europe. Lisbon's animated nightlife only comes to an end in the early hours of the next day, when the deafening noise of the music gives way to the first rays of sunshine, which seem to cover the entire city with a golden and violet veil, blending light and colour until it becomes hard to distinguish between fantasy and reality

Trips to discover the secret places hidden away around Lisbon would not be complete without a visit to Sintra. Sintra was formerly the summer retreat of the kings of Portugal, and it has maintained the magic of ancient mediaeval towns. You can still find the influence of the Moorish occupation of Portugal during the Middle Ages, and gaze in wonder at the famous tiles in the streets, and on the façades and interiors of some buildings. For those who are tired and would like something sweet to eat, there are horse-drawn carriages to take you to one of the many tea-rooms, where you can enjoy the famous "travesseiros" and "queijadas de Sintra".
