🏰Guarding the City from Above – São Jorge Castle, Lisbon

#tesaruonbudget #attractive #stunningview Perched high on one of Lisbon’s seven hills, São Jorge Castle offers a journey through centuries of history and breathtaking panoramic views of the city and the Tagus River. Once a royal residence and Moorish stronghold, this iconic fortress still stands proudly with its ancient stone walls, towers, and hidden courtyards echoing tales of kings, battles, and glory. As you stroll along the ramparts, the red rooftops of Lisbon stretch below in a picture-perfect scene — especially magical during sunset when the golden light bathes the city in warmth. Inside the castle grounds, peacocks wander freely, and shaded gardens provide peaceful spots to relax while soaking in the atmosphere of old Lisbon. São Jorge Castle is more than a monument; it’s a living memory of Portugal’s vibrant past, offering visitors a majestic view of where history and beauty meet high above the capital. #europeonbudget #lisbontravel #saojorgecastle #portugaltravel #discoverlisbon #historiclisbon #wanderportugal #travelmoments #castlesofeurope #cityviews #sãojorgecastle
