Do you already know what what things you want to do on your next holidays in Lisbon? In the Summer, sunny days, mild temperatures and our historical neighborhoods are full of life and cultural activities, and allow you to explore the city. Accept our invitation and discover what things to do in Lisbon during the Santos Populares! season!
Spend a morning at the Estufa Fria
Estufa Fria is the right place to stroll on a summer morning. With 300 species of flora from different continents, here you will feel inspired by the small lakes and caves that decorate this exotic garden.
On the slopes of Parque Eduardo VII, this lush hideaway in Lisbon is home to plants from countries around the world, such as China, Australia, Mexico, Peru, Brazil, the West Indies and the Korean Peninsula. Additionally, it is the perfect place to relax before having a coffee at the Hotel Marquês de Pombal.
Discover the Estufa Fria here!
Have an Ice Cream at A Veneziana
To sweeten a summer day, there is nothing better than an ice cream. But not just any ice cream. With almost 90 years of history, A Veneziana is a mandatory stop for anyone passing by Praça dos Restauradores, next to Praça do Rossio.
100% natural, without dyes or preservatives, served with real pieces of fruit, in a cone, bowl or glass. More than ice cream, here they serve smiles of various flavors. Have you tried them? Discover them here!
Attend the Marchas Populares in Lisbon
When the Santos Populares parties start, there is only one possible destination: Avenida da Liberdade! It is here that, on the night of June 12th to the 13th, the various neighborhoods of Lisbon “dress up” to give color, music and dance to the Avenida. From Campo de Ourique to Alto do Pina, passing through Madragoa and Alfama, there are several marchers who arrive to represent their neighborhood with lively performances, in a night where there is no shortage of arraiais, the typical roasted sardines, and manjericos (basils).
Be inspired by the Festas de Santo António here!
Try a Cod Dish
As a pastry, battered, with cream or à Brás. There are over 100 delicious ways to cook codfish. One thing is for certain: this food deserves to be on the menu on your next visit to Lisbon.
Where can you try this delicacy? Discover some of the best restaurants in Lisbon that offer excellent cod dishes, such as: Solar do Bacalhau, Laurentina – O Rei do Bacalhau, Clube do Bacalhau or Blú Restaurant.
Stroll along the Tagus River
By bicycle, boat or HIPPOtrip, having the Tagus as a backdrop is always a great option on your summer trips. Watching the sunset with a cocktail and the sound of a DJ, with Lisbon in the background, is to say the least, an inspiring programme.
You can enjoy lunch or dinner by the river, on a sightseeing, radical or romantic tour with the knowing that you'll enjoy a relaxing and refreshing moment accompanied by the river breeze.
