Lisbon: Photo Diary

Pattern pavement on Rua Augusta, approaching the grand Rua Augusta Arch and Praca do Comercio - Pombaline-Baixa, Lisbon - Portugal.
Lisbon, Portugal's visually stunning capital city.
On arrival in Lisbon, I had zero expectations and was completely blown away by the beauty and diversity of the city. Set between seven hills, the romantic and bright architecture, colourful street art, patterned pavement and elegant street lighting all combine to make Lisbon a sight for sore eyes.

To wrap up my posts from my first journey to Portugal, below are a selection of images taken over multiple days as I wandered through the street's of Lisbon, struggling to use my camera because of my need to continually pick my jaw up off the ground in awe.
