Belém Tower, Pastéis de Belém, the Jerónimos Monastery, tram 28, St George's Castle, or even the statue of Fernando Pessoa in Chiado, with which everyone wants to take a photo: all of them are Lisbon landmarks that are almost compulsory stops for anyone passing through the Portuguese capital, which is increasingly popular with travellers from all over the world.
Yet they all share the same problem: tourists, lots of tourists. So many that at times it can be hard to move, the queues are long and you will struggle to feel you are in Portugal at all, as all around you you will hear plenty of French, English, Italian or Spanish... but very little Portuguese.
