 “We leave something of ourselves behind when we leave a place, we stay there, even though we go away. And there are things in us that we can find again only by going back there.”
Pascal Mercier, Night Train to Lisbon 

Lisbon: golden light,  elegant, timeless, poetic and picture perfect from every angle. Just few words that comes up when I think back of Lisbon. My bestfriend said to me: resistance is useless. This city will enchants you. I believed her and it was true. Lisbon, you are my soul city. And you know, I will going back to you.

Miradouro de Santa Catarina

[Miradouro de Santa Catarina]

Miradouro de Santa Catarina (locals also calls it "Adamastor") is one of the famous viewpoints in Lisbon. This place was the first I wanted to see on our first day in Lisbon. Loved by the young bohemian and the alternative and reggae singing types of folks. This vista point has a phenomenal panorama of the Tagus river, the 25th Abril bridge and the Rio imitation "Christo Rei". Enjoy this place with an ice cold and cheap beer from the little kiosk/bar during Lisbon's very own Lusco Fusco - the blue hour - which is the span of twilight between sunset and night.
