Monastery of the Hieronymites and Tower of Belém are two must-see UNESCO Heritage sites in Lisbon. If you are a food lover, you need to try the bacalhau and for dessert, the known pastéis de nata. For a fun night out, head to Bairro Alto and for an historic walk, get lost at Alfama!
Alicante
Alicante is a wonderful idea for a summer break! Take a trip to Tabarca Island, admire the turquoise waters at San Juan Beach or cool off at Postiguet Beach. Stroll throughout Paseo de la Explanada contemplating its colorful mosaic. Santa Barbara castle provides a breathtaking panoramic view of Alicante! Don't forget to taste Alicante's turron, a banda rice, and fideuá. Their official festival, declared International Tourist Interest, is Bonfires of San Juan, who takes place between 19 to 24 of June. Let's head to Alicante!
