Lisbon, Portugal's capital and largest city (about 550,000 inhabitants in the city, around 3 million in the total urban area), is a fascinating city of charming architecture, art and tradition. Set on the Portugese west coast where the river Tagus meets the Atlantic, Lisbon claims the title of mainland Europe's westernmost capital.

Fiesta de Lisboa aka Santos Populares, is celebrated in downtown Lisbon all throughout the month of June. The capitol buildings are draped in streamers and everyone celebrates with a series of cultural events, street parties, and prayers (since the month is saturated with holidays commemorating great Saints). One of the pinnacle events, St Anthony's parade ( Marchas Populares), occurs on June 12th, and it is preceded by the marrying of 12 couples from Lisbon's parishes.

If you are a light sleeper request a room away from the road. ... more
