Castelo de S. Jorge

This place is huge ! Mostly empty but huge. And high. Huge and high.. so that means hundreds of stunning views over Lisbon. Pick a clear day and you could see forever I reckon.There are cafes inside and a neat museum of things uncovered.Unfortunately the BCE ruins were inaccessible on the day we went, but are being preserved so that’s awesome and further adds to the second oldest city on earth claim that Lisbon makes.If you suffer vertigo don’t go, the walls are very high, and there is minimal railing so it’s a vertigo sufferers nightmare I imagine.Great to see, looks like it will keep getting better and the views are so much better than the elevator. Allow at least a couple of hours or more if you like museum artifacts peacocks and soaking in views. Be a bit fit if you plan on walking there.. it’s a short walk but very uphill !
