Miradouro Sophia de Mello, Calçada da Graça, Lisbon


The terrace of Miradouro Sophia de Mello offers broad views over Lisbon, taking in the Castelo de S. Jorge, the suspension bridge, Ponte 25 de Abril, and the pastel colours of the old city. Although it is a stiff climb up to the viewpoint and it is popular with selfie-seeking tourists, this is a fine spot to sip a beer in the shadow of Igreja e Convento da Graça and soak up Lisbon's history.
