"The Miradouro da Senhora do Monte is one of Lisbon's most important historical landmarks. It is also one of the quietest and least popular viewpoints in the city, despite having an exceptional panoramic view. A few meters from the Graça viewpoint, its stage format is a privileged audience for observing the capital. On your left you will find the Graça church, the Castle houses and the São Jorge castle, imposing and majestic, like the guardian of the city. In the background, the straw sea and the Tagus estuary shine and illuminate the rooftops of Baixa, the ruins in Carmo, the green of Monsanto and the pastel colors of Avenidas Novas. All this in the space where the first King of Portugal, D. Afonso Henriques set up camp for the conquest of Lisbon. Nine centuries later, Senhora do Monte, with its Hermitage, founded in 1147, conquers it."

"Miradouro da Senhora do Monte is one of the most impressive viewpoints in Lisbon. Located in the Graça neighbourhood, it offers a stunning panoramic view of the city. From the top of the hill, it is possible to appreciate the urban landscape of Lisbon, with its colourful roofs, the imposing 25 de Abril Bridge and the Tagus River in the background. The viewpoint is a popular place to admire the sunset and enjoy quiet moments while taking in the stunning views. In addition, the proximity to the Capela da Senhora do Monte, a small hilltop shrine, adds a special touch of spirituality to the location. The Miradouro da Senhora do Monte is an unmissable place to contemplate the beauty and grandeur of Lisbon."

"after climbing up stairs, and weaving through narrow streets, miradouro da senhora do monte will grace you with unreal views. if it is too crowded, i like to hop up onto this wall with graffiti which is near the street calcada do monte, to get a more private experience. up the street as well are some cool bars to grab a drink after if you end up there at sunset."
