One of my favourite things to do on my travels is finding a good bookshop. Ler Devagar (meaning ' read slowly' in English) did not disappoint. Built inside an old printing factory you can find this bookshop in the trendy LX factory in Alcântara. Books fill the walls from floor to ceiling and in the middle of the shop is a large flying bicycle. Need I say more.

Off-the-beaten-path, just outside Lisbon. The best seafood! Humble and local atmosphere. Check the opening times first + Sr. Domingos doesn't open when his football team plays!

Lovely little cafe with beautiful decor. Excellent pastries and friendly atmosphere.

Small venue with the best concerts in town.

On the Founder's Colletion building you can travel from Egyptian, Greco-Roman, Islamic to the Far East art and to the eighteenth-century French decorative arts. On the Modern Collection building some of the most important Portuguese modern artists from the 20th century. The library is perfect spot to study and the garden is very beautiful.
