São Jorge Castle

São Jorge Castle, perched atop a hill in the Alfama district, offers panoramic views of Lisbon and the Tagus River. The castle's origins date back to the 11th century, serving as a Moorish royal residence before being captured by the Portuguese in 1147. The castle complex includes fortified walls, towers, and a small museum showcasing archaeological finds. Visitors can walk along the ramparts, explore the restored castle grounds, and enjoy the tranquil gardens. São Jorge Castle is not only a historical landmark but also a perfect spot to appreciate the scenic beauty of Lisbon.
