Lisbon is a city of hills, and every climb ends with a reward: a miradouro, a viewpoint terrace over red roofs and the wide Tagus river. Old yellow trams rattle up the slopes, the lanes of Alfama smell of grilled sardines in summer, and in Belém the Jerónimos Monastery tells of the age of the great sea voyages. Lisbon is still one of the cheaper capitals in Western Europe: in our data, well-rated hostels start at about 38 euros a night.
