Lisbon is one of the oldest cities in the world, and the second-oldest European capital city (after Athens), predating other modern European capitals by centuries. In 1147 Afonso Henriques, the first king of Portugal, conquered the city and since then it has been the political, economic and cultural center of Portugal.

There are numerous guided tours, museums, parks, and other sightseeing possibilities in and around Lisbon.
