The Costa de Lisboa/Lisbon region
Lisbon, the Sun Capital of Europe, is perfect for visiting year round. Its mild weather and temperatures throughout the year attract visitors from all parts of the world, fascinating them with its luminosity, so many times celebrated by poets.
As one of the oldest cities in Europe, Lisbon is a cosmopolitan city whose history spans the last 3.000 years and tells the tale of ancient civilizations that here dwelled. The Romans called it Felicitas Julia (Julius Hapiness) due to the happy times Julius Caesar here lived as governor. The Moors called it Al-Lixbuna. Remnants of their past can be seen in the ancient Roman Theatre and in Lisbonīs castle.
As the centre of the Portuguese Empire of the XV and XVI centuries (that "gave new worlds to the world"), Lisbon bears witness to the epic past of the Portuguese Discoveries in outstanding museums and historic monuments as the Orient Museum, the Jeronimos Monastery and the Belém Tower.
If you fancy relaxing at the beach, you will find a vast array of fine grain sandy beaches no more than 30 minutes away. A sunset in the Ocean is a sight that will accompany you all life.
And, if you would like to venture out of the city, you will find that Lisbon is a perfect base for exploring famous nearby cities and towns as Estoril seaside resort, Cascais and the UNESCO World Heritage Town of Sintra.
