The view here is incredible. It's a bit different from last year with new pop-up wine stalls. Absolutely stunning! I also visited in the early morning for a gorgeous sunrise.

The views of both the city and the castle are breathtaking. I've been here both during the day and at night, and both experiences were fantastic. On weekends, there's a food market atmosphere with delicious food and affordable drinks. There are also live musicians and many friendly faces around. No tickets required, just walk in! I highly recommend this place!

This mountain view is my favorite. The view is expansive, allowing you to spot numerous landmarks. The nearby street is lined with small shops, and you can stroll down to the sea along the charming blue streets. I imagine it's even more stunning at night.

The view of Lisbon is spectacular. I suggest visiting both during the day and at sunset or nighttime. Don’t miss out on the Christmas market with delicious food and local shops.
