       The port's along the estuary. Then the beaches kick in - Cascais, Estoril. The mountains are a little more inspiring further north - not to mention bringers of snow in winter. The city itself is built on seven hills.
       
       Which is why I use the metro a lot. Walking around Lisbon can be tough stuff! The walk from Rossio up to Bairro Alto for e.g. A killer walk and far too many steps IMO. Same when you climb up to Castelo de São Jorge - fantastic views from the castle but damn ... I whined every step of the way up!
