So much sightseeing to do, so little time. A centrally located Lisbon vacation rental will surround you with historic buildings, like the 12th-century Lisbon Cathedral, the landmark Torre de Belem guarding the entrance to the harbor, or the 9th-century Castelo Sao Jorge, towering over the city and visible from pretty much anywhere. Don't forget to stop by the Mosteiro dos Jeronimos, a Manueline monastery dating from the 15th century. Museum buffs should check out MUDE design and fashion museum, or the fascinating artifacts at Museu Gulbenkian. The Lisbon Oceanarium is a must see, as are the beaches.
The best way to discover Lisbon is to explore its fascinating neighborhoods on foot. Whether you're a history buff or an architecture lover, there's a walking tour with your name on it, or opt for an electric bike tour if two wheels are more your speed. You could easily spend a day shopping at the various boutiques and markets—be sure to make time to stop for a port tasting along the way. Soccer is huge here, and there's often a film festival going on. No trip would be complete without some quality time at one of the beaches.
When it comes to mild weather, Lisbon's got some of the best. You'll never have to worry about extremes at a Lisbon vacation rental. Winters can be a bit rainy, but summers are generally warm and dry. You'll see highs in the 70s and 80s in the summer months of June through September. Winters are pleasant, with lows in the mid-40s to low 50s from November to February, and highs often breaking 60 during the day. May and October can be wild cards—you never know if you'll get a taste of winter or summer.
If you're heading west in Europe, you'll know you've hit Lisbon when you can't go any farther. At the mouth of the Tagus River on the Atlantic Ocean, you'll find medieval cities, pristine beaches, and even a forested park, all in a small area. The city's most notable feature, though, might be the seven picturesque hills that surround it on the three sides that aren't the ocean. They offer great vantage points for taking in the city below. The beaches are the perfect place to enjoy some stellar sunsets over the Atlantic.
