Lisbon: Santa Justa Lift


One other attraction that we got to check off the list with this second visit to Lisbon is to go up the Santa Justa Lift. The Santa Justa Lift is an elevator, 45 meters in height, and consists of a metal tower, terrace and walkway and base. At the top is a kiosk with panoramic views of the city. The architecture is nice too, especially the spiral staircase.
There is a minimal fee to get up and there was a line to get up so we waited in line for about 20 minutes or so.

OUR WORLD TUESDAY


My husband teased me when he learned I am still blogging about Lisbon. He said perhaps we should stop taking vacations until I'm caught up blogging about ones I already took.

  2. OMG that is so high! I want to try them but very challenging for my soft knees when in high places, hihi. I've been to countries with known towers but i only tried that in KL, then i can't step on the area with glass floor. I almost went to Auckland Tower, but i was shy to ask my sister for the entrance fee. Sydney, Taiwan, Bangkok and Dubai have towers too, but am too scared to pay for those fees. Imagine paying the high price but can't open eyes when already there!

  7. It was worth the wait to get all these wonderful views from the top of the lift! Lisbon looks like such a pretty city.

    I know what your husband means--it is hard to keep up with all we want to show and say in blog posts and easy to get backlogged. But that is also a good thing, sas we are never bored and always have something to blog about!
