Lisbon

Hotel York House gave me a very grand welcome. I booked the hôtel à Lisbonne centre in advance as my visit was during the high touirst season. Housed in a classic 18th century building, this establishment offered me a room equipped with TV, telephone, air conditioning and full bathroom. Lisbon offers many other comfortable hotel in Lisbon Portugal that can make a stay in the city an amazing experience. The capital of Portugal is known all over the world for its fascinating attractions and cultural heritage. I started sightseeing by visiting some of the museums of ancient and modern art. Other sights that I visited include St. George's Castle, Belem Tower, Jerónimos Monastery, Coach Museum, Jardim Zoológico and Lisbon Botanical Garden. A walk along the Alfama district many historic highlights. During my vacation in hotel Lisboa, I enjoyed shopping in Baixa, the old shopping district in the city. Traveler of any taste would love the food offered in the cafes and resturants in Lisbon like I did. One of my favourite eateries was Café Buenos Aires. Those who like to enjoy meals in a beautiful ambience, should take a trip to district Bairro Alto.
