Convento do Carmo Review

The Carmelite Convent—once Lisbon's largest—was all but ruined by the 1755 earthquake. Its sacristy houses the Museu Arqueológico do Carmo (Archaeological Museum), a small collection of ceramic tiles, medieval tombs, ancient coins, and other city finds. The lovely square outside—accessible via a walkway from the top of the Elevador da Santa Justa —is a great place to dawdle over a coffee.

  • Seville or Lisbon

    We have the possibility of going to either Lisbon or Seville for 4 days (in Januray!).

    I haven't been to any of the two cities before.

    Which one of the places would you recommend?

    Thank you. Read more
