Strolling in Lisbon! Encountering Portugal’s classical poetic time】**

**【 Walking into Lisbon is like falling into a dream of the old times. The ochre-red roofs, the curved cobblestone roads, the clanging trams, every detail tells the romance and history of Portugal. This sun-kissed city has both the remnants of the Middle Ages and the heroic atmosphere of the Age of Discovery. **Every corner of the old town is a surprise**! In the Alfama district, traditional Fado taverns are hidden in the narrow alleys. The hoarse singing accompanied by the grape wine makes people intoxicated. The Castle of St. George overlooks the whole city. At sunset, the whole city is dyed golden, like a classical oil painting. **The Belém district is a palace of history and art**. The Manueline carvings of the Mosteiro dos Jerónimos Monastery are exquisite, and the Belém Tower quietly guards the mouth of the Tagus River. It seems that you can still hear the whistle of the sailboats in the past. Don’t forget to taste a piece of Portuguese egg tart. The perfect combination of puff pastry and egg fragrance is the soul of Portuguese desserts. Lisbon, a city that can be measured by footsteps, wanders between classic and modern, leaving behind full memories and touching moments.
