It was the Portuguese who set out to discover the
world, but it's funny how the tables always turn. Modern-day Lisbon
is buzzing with activity yet remains stubbornly old-fashioned - a
compelling combination for its growing number of visitors, and putting
it firmly back on the map as a place to be seen. Even more so when
you see this is beauty on a budget, a world away from the inflated
prices of other European capitals. But it's more the cobblestone streets,
elegant Manueline architecture and heart-rending fado melodies that
will tug at those strings and leave you touched by this historic yet
contemporary city.
