City of Lisbon
 |
| Ponte 25 de Abril over the Tagus River. Easily the most visible landmark of Lisbon. |
 |
| Santuario de Cristo Rei (Christ the King). A 110m tall statue on the Almada side of the Tagus, watching over the whole of Lisbon on the other side. |
 |
| The bridge is over 2km long and is actually the smaller of the two bridges over the estuary. |
 |
| A view of central Lisbon from Almada. |
 |
| Cacilhas Lighthouse - marking the eastern tip of Almada, overlooking the estuary. |
 |
| Se de Lisboa (Lisbon Cathedral) in the historic part of the city. |
 |
| Cruise ships in port, viewed from one of the many miradours (lookout points) of Lisbon. |
 |
| Praca de Comercio - the main square in town. |
 |
| Statue of Dom Jose I - King of Portugal during the devastating 1755 earthquake of Lisbon, which reduced almost the entire city to ruble. |
 |
| The statue of another king, viewed from the square. |
 |
| Another view of the bridge, this time from the Lisbon side. |

Cascais
 |
| Cascais, along with neighboring Estoril, are the oceanfront escapes on the Portuguese Riviera. |
 |

 |
| Boca do Inferno (Devil's Mouth) - a natural arch in the cliff side. |
 |
| Bay of Cascais with Estoril in the distance. |
National Palace of Pena
An eclectic castle built in the Romanesque-Revival style. Famous for its primary-coloured walls, it was a bit faded on this occasion, but work was ongoing as evidenced by the presence of scaffolding.
 |
| Ruins of the Moorish Castle in the distance. |
and the last photo of Lisbon...
 |
| Ponte Vasco da Gama in its entirety. |
