About Lisbon and the Silver Coast
Lisbon
The vestiges of its 2,800 year-old history are everywhere you look in Lisbon, fingerprints from a time when the world was yet to be discovered. That electric feeling of excitement and mystery lives on in Lisbon, calling travellers from all around the world to drink in the scenic vistas, ancient architecture, World Heritage monuments, cultural treasures and undeniable romanticism of this magnificent city. Built on a series of hills that overlook one of the world’s greatest natural harbours, Lisbon is a melting pot of influences from Phoenician, Celtic, Roman, Visigoth and Moorish culture. Lose yourself in Gothic cathedrals, centuries-old monasteries, quaint museums and cobbled alleyways as you become intimately acquainted with one of Europe’s most captivating, soulful and enchanted capitals. The abundance of tourist attractions in Lisbon will have you winding your way through tree-lined streets in its characteristic yellow trams; strolling hand-in-hand through the old quarter; stopping at tiny patio restaurants for freshly-baked bread and wine; walking along the seaside that saw the triumphant return of Vasco da Gama or listening to the haunting melancholy of fado, the traditional music of Portugal. Wander down to the River Tagus, whose riverfront is dedicated to leisure activities and which links the historically significant zone of Belém with the modern area of the Parque das Nações. Stroll through the hilltop district of Bairro Alto, where countless restaurants and bars line the streets. Jazz, reggae and fado fill the air in this lively district where revellers party until the sun rises golden over the sea. There has never, and will never be a city like Lisbon. As anyone who has visited it will tell you, the pure pleasure of exploring Lisbon’s streets, experiencing its gorgeous weather and delicious food, or discovering its secrets can never be explained. Heed the traveller’s call, set sail for Lisbon’s shores and feel the excitement as the city looms near, waiting to be discovered again.
Silver Coast
Between Lisbon and Porto stretches the Costa de Prata or, as it’s known to the wider world, The Silver Coast. This exquisite stretch of Portuguese coastline is famed for its glittering white sandy beaches, rugged cliffs and traditional townscapes. Silver Coast property for rent can be found all along this vast Atlantic coastline, whether in traditional, sleepy fishing villages or modern seaside resorts. Inland, amid the unspoiled countryside of vineyards and forests, Silver Coast property can be found in ancient fortified villages or historic towns with cobbled streets and pretty whitewashed houses. Holidaymakers can bask in the sun on one of the Silver Coast’s countless beaches; play golf on a world-class links course or immerse themselves in the history and culture of “real Portugal”. The choice is yours when you book a villa rental holiday with Regency Luxury Villas.
