"The São Pedro de Alcântara viewpoint is one of the largest and most iconic observation points in Lisbon. It is right next to the top of the Glória elevator and offers a special panorama of the city. Here you can see the entire Avenida da Liberdade, Restauradores and Baixa, as well as the hill of Castelo de São Jorge, with its imposing walls and its photogenic green crown of umbrella pines.
You can also see in full detail the viewpoint of Igreja da Graça, with its imposing church. This viewpoint has the particularity of being part of a beautiful and well-kept garden, where you can drink a refreshment on the kiosk terrace. You will also find an original tiled map to identify some of the iconic places you can see. This is, without a doubt, one of the city's unmissable spots."

"Another iconic Quiosque, located in the between Principe Real & Chiado. Whether you are wondering around Lisbon's streets and just want a sit down or you want somewhere with a drink and breathtaking view, this is the Quiosque for you.
Insiders Tips : On a summers evening bring a pack of cards, backgammon or even a book and some crisps (my favourite are the Lay's Camponesa's or Ruffles Ketchup crisps)and order a drink of choice and watch the day turn to night. "

"There are a couple of notable lookouts in this area, my favourite being Miradouro de São Pedro de Alcântara.
This particular lookout has a little cafe/bar at the very end of the platform, where you can grab a coffee or an Aperol Spritz and simply watch the world pass you by.
(Average time spent here: 20 mins - 1.5 hrs) "
