Out on the tram to Belem to see the Jeronimos monastery, which has a spectacular frontage and peaceful cloisters, as well as an ornate church. This is a World Heritage which well deserves to be. The whole Belem area is full of museums but TSH and Diva just went to see the monument to the Portugese navigators and the Belem tower, which is an old fortification.
It is quite easy to get around on public transport with a 6 euro day ticket.
Lisbon is quite run down in places, which is probably due to the European austerity and recession.
