Lisbon is an incredible city and I wanted to learn as much about it as I could, so on the second day of my trip I took a walking tour of the down town area - familiarising myself with the city centre and learning about the capital's history and culture.

We took a walk around the neighbourhoods of Bairro Alto, Chiado and Baixa before ending the tour in Praça do Comércio - a spectacular plaza made up of stone arches, bright yellow neoclassical style buildings and a magnificent waterfront.
