Portugal has been one of those countries that had me go: "Oh, it´s nearby, I will go there one day but not this time". As I was planning my christmas holidays, me and my mother wanted to do something different and spend some quality time outside of Finland. We had never been to Portugal before, so it was the perfect destination for the both of us.
I flew in from Amsterdam, while my mother came from Helsinki. We landed almost at the same time and decided to travel by Uber to our hotel, Sheraton Lisbon Hotel & Spa. Always good to say hi to my "colleagues". The hotel is ok located, not very central but close to a metro station and some shopping malls. However, our hotel had a wonderful spa and delicious breakfast in the morning.
Our first days were spent by exploring Lisbon, travelling by the famous tram 28, we had lunch at the Time Out Market, Taberna Sal Grosso, visited several miraduros and of course the Castelo De S.Jorge. At the end of the day, we managed to visit the National Sanctuary of Christ the King. I guess the pictures speak for themselves, the views have been breathtaking and literally just made me smile. I love Lisbon so far!
