Fado Show

Fado is a popular genre of music in Portugal. It is related to social issues like the daily hardships people go through. There are 2 major types of fado music. The first type is largely spread in Lisbon. Since its first years, fado has become popular among sailors and prostitutes. Portuguese artists performed mostly in cafes and pubs. The second type is Coimbra fado which is sung in city squares and on the streets. The main difference between these two types of fado is that Lisbon fado is performed among work-class Portuguese people. On the contrary, the Coimbra fado is mainly performed for privileged and high-class people.

The best places and restaurants to watch fado show:

  • A Severa - Since its opening in 1955, the restaurant pays tribute to Maria Severa, who was a famous fado singer. Besides its traditional fado interior, the restaurant serves Portuguese and international dishes. Being open in the 20th century, the restaurant still preserves its traditional image.

Trip to Sintra

Located 28 km north-west to Lisbon, Sintra is a charming city located in the Serra de Sintra hills. The hills hide extraordinary palaces and ruins of an old castle. Thanks to historical monuments, trips to Sintra are considered as the best 1-day tours from Lisbon. What are the main attractions to see in Sintra? Palacio Nacional de Pena - This is one of Europe’s most beautiful palaces. It’s exterior is painted in vivid colors. The interior has been restored to gain back its look in 1910. Castelo dos Mouros - an old ruined castle that gives magnificent views to the region. The reason why there are a lot of castles in Sintra is mostly historical. Due to its soft climate, the region attracted the nobility of Portugal. This is why they built secondary residences. How to get to Sintra? It’s really easy to get to Sintra from Lisbon. There are two regular train lines. The first one departs from Rossio station. The second one departs from Estacao de Oriente. The ride lasts between 40 and 47 minutes. And there are 3 trains per hour departing from Lisbon.

Alfama District

In ancient times, Alfama was a place associated with poverty and dirt. Today, it has become one of the most charismatic districts of Lisbon. You can easily get lost in its narrow streets and walkways. At every corner of this district, you can see amazing squares, stylish cafes, independent boutiques, and panoramic views. Another way to discover the district is to get on board of the historical Tram 28. But the tramway is very popular among tourists and locals. It’s really hard to find a free seat.

Tagus river

Tagus river has always played an important communication role. It has linked naval commercial links in the region. If you have visited San Francisco, you will probably find some similarities between the bridges of San Francisco and Lisbon. There are several ways to experience the Tagus river. Firstly, you can book a boat or cruise tour along the river. Then, you can enjoy the fresh breeze of the Tagus river in a nearby cafe with an outdoor terrace. For sunset views, we recommend the Darwin cafe. There is a luxury restaurant on the top floor which serves mesmerizing food and views.
