    Schöne Aussicht von hier oben! Aber vorsicht! Hier fahren auch Autos lang! 🙃

    What a nice place to just hang around, sipping some drink of your choice (which you have to bring on your own, of course) and enjoying the view. I learned about it just recently and got curious. And since the weather promised to be fine the other night, warm and with a clear cloudless sky, I went there and did enjoy it a lot. It’s amazing seeing the sun sinking down to the horizon and so creating a colorful play in the sky. Won’t be the last time I’ve been there, I guess.

    Amazing view point in the midst of a bustling city. Super steep hills on the way to here, so be prepared for an uphill hike up. But the view absolutely makes up for it! Also a place to sit if you are lucky and the single bench on top is free.

  • 5/5 Aiva J. 7 months ago on Google • 131 reviews
    Great view of the city.Morning not too busy.

  • 5/5 Jiggity J. 11 months ago on Google • 96 reviews
    Great view spot to watch the sunset. 180 degree view of the city. Less busy than some of the other spots.

  • 5/5 Jamaan P. 9 months ago on Google • 30 reviews
    Great viewpoint! As you can see, the stairs can be a nuisance especially if you’re already hammered. Get there as early before the crowd of tourists come through. Sunset in the summer is usually around 9PM. Bring beers!

  • 5/5 Samrat T. 2 months ago on Google • 23 reviews New
    Great viewpoint ! A must place to visit to enjoy the view of Lisbon city !

  • 5/5 sakib k. 6 months ago on Google • 13 reviews
    This is where me and my buddy Rafael sit and look at the city building and its silhouette. We sit on the benches and have a long conversation about life. Very cool place and gives you a wide angle view of the city landscape.

    (Translated by Google) Viewpoint that you can see a large part of Lisbon, the good thing is to be up, the bad thing is the slope to get there, prepare your twins. (Original) Mirador que se ve gran parte de Lisboa, lo bueno es estar arriba, lo malo la cuesta pa llegar, preparen sus gemelos.

  • 5/5 Joaquim A. 3 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) Little-known view to a little explored side of the city. It must be the first or second highest point in the city. (Original) Vista pouco conhecida para um lado da cidade pouco explorado. Deve ser o primeiro ou segundo ponto mais alto da cidade.

  • 4/5 Penetrate Y. 5 years ago on Google
    A great city view will be here. Don’t miss it.

  • 3/5 John M. 3 years ago on Google
    Great view over lisboa and the vasco da gama Bridge but little else there.

  • 5/5 Nikola L. 1 year ago on Google
    Beautiful scenic spot that shows almost all of lisbon. Not too busy either. The hill is relatively steep to walk up but the views are worth it

  • 5/5 Yasmin Z. 2 years ago on Google
    Amazing place to see the sunset with the view of the city. But be aware of the very steep road leading to it. It’s quite a hike.

  • 4/5 Pedro O. 2 years ago on Google
    A every view point in Lisbon is incredible, but i would say this one scores a bit behind all the others. This view is of a less beautiful side of the city.

  • 4/5 Aaron W. 1 year ago on Google
    One of the interesting view points on the hills of Lisbon. Not a listed one of the 6 hills but certainly one with a good view

  • 5/5 nayana m. 1 year ago on Google

  • 5/5 Rita N. 1 year ago on Google
    Almost 360 view of Lisbon. Hard to reach but totally worth it.

  • 4/5 Alex H. 1 year ago on Google
    Great view of the northern part of the city and river. It was worth the climb up the hill. It wasn't well kept and looked like someone had ripped out the trashcan from the ground.

  • 5/5 BucharestSpots 11 months ago on Google
    Superb belle-vue just off Penha de Franca Miradouro. Always a cityspot full of tourists and nice sunsets.Must see!

    Awesome corner of the city to sit by.

  • 5/5 Karen D. 8 months ago on Google • 8 reviews
    View point offering wonderful view of the tiled rooftops of Lisbon with the river in the background. Our route included a steep climb up to the Miradouro but it was peaceful & quiet with not too many people around when we got there to watch the sunset.

  • 5/5 Norbert A. 4 years ago on Google

    (Translated by Google) Breathtaking view over Lisbon. Of the few places where you can see both bridges that cross the Tagus. (Original) Vista deslumbrante sobre Lisboa. Dos poucos locais onde se vêem ambas as pontes que atravessam o Tejo.

  • 4/5 Wesley Bonfim B. 3 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) Unlike almost all viewpoints, this one overlooks the Vasco da Gama bridge and not 25 de Abril. But it is closer to April 25th then. If little of the bridge and from a distance. But it has a good view to see the surroundings that only have hills and houses in these. Worth knowing. But don't prioritize it. (Original) Diferente de quase todos os miradouros este tem vista para a ponte Vasco da Gama e não para a 25 de Abril. Mas está mais próxima da 25 de Abril então. Se pouco da ponte e de longe. Mas tem um boa vista para ver os arredores que só tem colinas e casas nestas. Vale a pena conhecer. Mas não o priorize.

  • 3/5 Pedro C. 3 years ago on Google

  • 4/5 Carolina A. 3 years ago on Google
    Mal mantido, mas uma vista de mais de 180º da cidade e do rio.

  • 4/5 Alexandre C. 3 years ago on Google
    Not the most picturesque view from Lisbon but gives you a good overview from the rest of the city except from the old town and historical neighborhoods. For that you should go to Miradouro da Graça

  • 4/5 Tom O. 3 years ago on Google
    Beautiful vista of Lisboa. Due to the steepness of hills you need the legs and stamina of a mountain goat to get to this view point. I would not do it again but highly recommend it to the uninitiated.

  • 5/5 Spunk V. 3 years ago on Google
    I just in front of my house stop asking me

  • 4/5 Bernhard N. 5 years ago on Google
    Very nice viewpoint especially to see the sunrise in the early mornings. The only downside is all the waste. The place looks like a dump, smells badly from waste and seems to be a public toilette
