My business administrator booked me the TAP, national airlines of Portugal for 2 hours and 40 minutes flight from London Heathrow Airport to Lisbon. I was on my office wear as taxi driver picked me up straight from my workplace.
As usual, did the weekend sight seeing and the very first thing that caught my attention was the amazing view of seagulls flying near the coastal of Rio Tejo or Tagus River in English. Rio Tejo is longest river on the Iberian Peninsula, border between Portugal and Spain.
Praca do Comercio, the commerce square is just near to the Rio Tejo.
Lost in the winding street of Lisbon's transitional quarters (downtown) before came to this look out point.
Infinity ocean, blue sky, nice view... and i think i look great with the RM10 sunglasses!It's from Petaling Street and followed me all the way to Portugal.
Visited Castillo de San Jorge.
and Padrao dos Descobrimentos, the monument that celebrates the great Portuguese looking out over the river, departed to their unknown destination. If you remember, Portuguese reached Melaka in the 1511...
I was standing in front of a red bridge that looks like the San Francisco Golden Gate Bridge! This is Ponte 25 de Abril, connecting Lisbon and Almada on the left bank of the Tagus river. Emm... Tagus River, i still perfer the Portuguese word - Rio Tejo.
If you are going to Lisbon, do not miss the Torre de Belem. It is one of the UNESCO World Herritage building built in the early sixteenth century.
