The major highlights
The Mosteiro dos Jerónimos in Belém is one of Portugal's most impressive 16th-century buildings and has been on the UNESCO World Heritage List since 1983. The Church of Santa Maria de Belém is the resting place of Vasco da Gama and Luis de Camões. Regular admission is not included in the card price, but entry is free with the Lisboa Card. As the country's most visited attraction, an early weekday visit is strongly recommended.
The Torre de Belém, completed in 1514 on the banks of the Tagus, is also a UNESCO World Heritage Site and a symbol of Portugal's Age of Discoveries. Regular admission applies without the card - entry is free with the Lisboa Card. Note: the tower may be temporarily closed for renovation.
The Moorish Castelo de São Jorge sits high above the Alfama old town and offers one of Lisbon's finest panoramic views. Regular admission applies without the card; free with the Lisboa Card, and easily reached by the historic Tram 28.
The Elevador de Santa Justa, opened in 1902, connects the Baixa district with the higher-level Largo do Carmo - however, it has been out of service since September 2025: after the Glória funicular accident, Carris took all of the historic lifts and funiculars out of operation for safety inspections, and no reopening date has been set (as of August 2026).
The Panteão Nacional inside the Igreja de Santa Engrácia, with its striking white dome above Alfama, is the final resting place of notable Portuguese figures and free with the card. And the legendary yellow tram Eléctrico 28 winds its way through Alfama and the old town - the journey itself is an experience, and is included in the unlimited public transport access.
