Lisbon is a very beautiful with a lot of beautiful pictures opportunities. If you’re looking for the best Instagram spots, I’ve got them all here with the best time to go there.
Miradouro Santa Luzia
One thing to do in Lisbon is obviously catching the sunset. The Miradouro of Santa Luzia is my favorite Instagram spot to do it. But be there a little early as it can get really packed. But it’s totally Insta worthy.
🕐 Sunrise or sunset
📍Largo de Santa Luzia , Lisbon
Pink Street
Everything that is pink is automatically famous on Instagram. So the pink street is a very good spot for pictures. The street is pretty empty during the day as there’s just bar around that only open at night.
🕐 Before 6pm
📍Rua Nova do Carvalho 28, Lisbon
Elevator de Bica
When in Lisbon you need to get a picture with a little tramway. Best Insta spot to get your shot is the Elevator de Bica.
You can also check those spots for a tramway picture: Ascensor da Glória, and the Elevator do Lavra that are a little less famous.
🕐 8am – 11am
📍Rua da Bica de Duarte Belo 53-81, Lisbon
📍Travessa do Sequeiro, Lisbon for a side view
Senhora de Monte
Another beautiful Insta spot to get a great view of the city, and catch the sunset. Another good Miradouro for the sunset is the Castle San Jorge, perfect insta spot in the castle too.
🕐 6pm – 7pm
📍Largo Monte, Lisbon
Ponte 25 April
The most famous bridge in Lisbon. It’s the doopleganger of the Golden Bridge of San Francisco, it’s always nice to take pictures with it. A classic Insta Spot of Lisbon.
📍Avenida de Brasilia
📍Restaurant : 5 Oceanos or Cafe In
🕐 All day
Palacio dos Marqueses da Fronteira
The Palacio is located in the park Monsento which is a little outside the city center. The Palacio is only open for 1 hour each day so be careful. But the gardens and the stairs outside will give you a beautiful Insta shot.
🕐 11am
📍Rua São Domingos de Benfica 1, Lisbon
Santa Justa Lift
One of the most visited landmark of the Lisbon. It’s an elevator that gives you a very nice view of the city. You can go up to catch the sunset/sunrise, or take a Instagram picture with the landmark.
🕐 6am – 9am
📍Rua Áurea 232, Lisbon
Torre de Belem
A real symbol of Lisbon that you need to photograph. The week-end can be really packed there, so go during the week if you can.
🕐 8am – 11am
📍Avenida Brasilia, Lisbon
Jeronimos Monastery
The Monastery had just one of the most beautiful ancient architecture to take pictures inside. You can also visit the church next to it for free. As the line to go into the monastery can be very long sometimes. But the architecture is so gorgeous, it’s definitely one of the most inspiring Insta spot in Lisbon.
For pictures it looks like you need to go to the Cloister. So I’ll recommend going for the opening.
🕐 10 am
📍Praça do Império, Lisbon
Monument of the Discoveries
Located just between the Torre de Belem and the Jerónimos Monastery, this monument represents the Portuguese conquests. It’s a beautiful spot to get a cool post mixing architecture, history and the ocean.
🕐 All day
📍Avenida Brasilia, Lisbon
Casa do Alentejo
This restaurant has a very unique architecture that reminds me of the riads in Morocco. As it is a restaurant, if you want to take pictures you should come before 12pm or after 2pm. But it’s so instagrammable, you have a stop and take a look.
🕐 3pm-5pm
📍Rua das Portas de Santo Antão 58, Lisbon
