The major highlights

The Mosteiro dos Jeronimos in Belem 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 Belem is the resting place of Vasco da Gama and Luis de Camoes. 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 Belem, 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 Sao 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. The ride is free with the card - only access to the very top viewing platform is not included.

The Panteão Nacional inside the Igreja de Santa Engracia, 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 Electrico 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.
