Portugal's National Tile Museum is one of the most important national museums, due to its unique collection of azulejos. They represent a distinctive artistic expression of the Portuguese culture, and you'll be able to discover their meaning inside a majestic former Convento da Madre de Deus, founded in 1509 by Queen Leonor.
The Igreja de Santa Cruz do Castelo de São Jorge, also known as Tower of St. George's Castle Church, is one of the most important places in Lisbon, Portugal. The temple had closed doors for over thirty years and hid many secrets, such as the statue of St. George, which is carried on a white horse in the oldest procession in Lisbon, since 1570.
Since June 2018, with the opening to the public of the Church Tower as a viewpoint, you can now climb to the top and soak up amazing views over Lisbon and the Tagus River. Listen out for the echo of the 18th-century bells, which still ring today.
The Lisbon Zoo, opened in 1884, was the Iberian Peninsula's first fauna and flora park. Right in the heart of Lisbon, it contains 2,000 animals from around 300 different species.
