Destination Lisbon joins global shortlist

Fado, pastéis de nata (custard tarts) or azulejos (tiles) are all reasons to visit Lisbon, according to TripAdvisor.

The "secular city", with winding streets and a medieval castle, "is more than just its past", the article points out, highlighting the modern atmosphere of the city, advising a visit to the new art galleries and the LX Factory.

Among around eight million listings, Lisbon once again stands out in the list of prizes awarded annually to the destinations chosen by the TripAdvisor community over the course of a year.
