From cobblestone streets to castle views: Explore Lisbon with Martinhal Chiado

As summer approaches and temperatures soar across India, finding the perfect family getaway becomes a priority. Lisbon, with its sun-warmed cobblestone streets, cool Atlantic breeze, and effortless blend of history and modern charm, is just the place. Whether it’s exploring medieval castles, indulging in world-class cuisine, or discovering Lisbon’s deep connection to the sea, this vibrant capital offers something for every family member:

April 1, 2025

A City That Sparks Wonder

Lisbon is a city best explored at its own unhurried pace, where every turn reveals a piece of its storied past. Start with a ride on the iconic Tram 28, its vintage carriages weaving through streets lined with pastel-hued buildings and intricate azulejos. As the tram winds its way uphill, hop off at Miradouro de Santa Luzia, a sun-drenched terrace where bougainvillea frames sweeping views of the terracotta rooftops cascading toward the Tagus River. From here, the labyrinthine alleys of Alfama beckon, their cobbled paths alive with the melancholic strains of Fado drifting from tucked-away taverns.

A short climb leads to Castelo de São Jorge, a medieval stronghold that has watched over the city for centuries. Its ancient ramparts offer panoramic views of the river and the red rooftops below, a reminder of Lisbon’s Moorish past and seafaring legacy. Just beyond, the Santa Justa Lift, an elegant 19th-century iron structure, transports visitors effortlessly to another striking viewpoint, where the city unfolds in a tapestry of tiled facades and church spires.

A Voyage Through Time in Belém

Following the river westward, the district of Belém stands as a monument to Portugal’s Age of Discovery. It was from these shores that explorers like Vasco da Gama set sail, and the echoes of their journeys remain in its grand landmarks. The Jerónimos Monastery, with its elaborate Manueline architecture, stands as a tribute to Portugal’s golden age of exploration, while the nearby Belém Tower, rising from the water like a sentinel, once safeguarded the city’s entrance. At the Monument to the Discoveries, stone-carved figures of legendary navigators gaze toward the horizon, a lasting tribute to the spirit of adventure that shaped Portugal’s history.

For those captivated by maritime heritage, the Maritime Museum offers a fascinating glimpse into the world of wooden ships, celestial navigation, and daring ocean voyages. Meanwhile, the Lisbon Story Centre brings the city’s past to life through immersive exhibits, recounting everything from its Moorish influences to the resilience that followed the devastating 1755 earthquake.

Adventures for Young Explorers

Lisbon is a playground for curious young minds. At the Lisbon Oceanarium, one of the largest aquariums in the world, children can watch sharks, rays, and playful otters glide through vast underwater habitats. The Monsanto Forest Park, the city’s largest green space, is also a great natural attraction for families with its refreshing picnic spots, scenic trails, and adventure playgrounds. For Animal lovers, the Lisbon Zoo is a fantastic place to spectate elephants, giraffes, and sea lions.

For a completely unexpected experience, the Hippotrip tour takes sightseeing to the next level, literally diving from the streets into the Tagus River in an amphibious vehicle. While the Pavilion of Knowledge, an interactive science museum, sparks curiosity with hands-on exhibits that turn learning into an adventure.

A Modern City with Timeless Allure

Beyond its history, Lisbon is a hub of creativity and style. The futuristic MAAT – Museum of Art, Architecture, and Technology stands as a bold contrast to the city’s ancient landmarks, while the National Tile Museum celebrates Portugal’s love affair with azulejos. Art lovers will find treasures at the Calouste Gulbenkian Museum and the National Museum of Ancient Art, home to works by Raphael, Bosch, and Dürer.

For a taste of Lisbon’s gourmet scene, Time Out Market brings together the best of Portugal’s cuisine under one roof, from Michelin-starred bites to comforting pastéis de nata. Those looking to indulge in retail therapy can wander through Avenida da Liberdade’s designer boutiques or explore the charming concept stores of Príncipe Real.

 

A Family Retreat in the Heart of Lisbon

For families seeking both luxury and convenience, Martinhal Lisbon Chiado is the perfect place to stay. Located in the bustling Chiado district, this boutique aparthotel is within walking distance of Lisbon’s top landmarks, charming streets, and lively cafés, making it an ideal base for exploring.

Housed in a beautifully restored 19th-century building, the spacious apartments feature kitchenettes, large wooden windows, and private balconies, offering stunning views of Lisbon’s rooftops. Designed specifically for families, the resort provides services like a Kids’ Club, babysitting, and a Baby Concierge, ensuring that parents can enjoy their vacation while children are entertained in a safe environment.

Moreover, a 5-night stay at Martinhal Lisbon Chiado gives guests exclusive access to the 48-hour Lisboa Card, unlocking the best of Lisbon with free entry to top attractions like Belém Tower, Jerónimos Monastery, and the Santa Justa Lift. The card also includes unlimited public transport, including metro, trams, and airport transfers, making it easier than ever to explore the city’s rich history, culture, and stunning viewpoints.

After a day of sightseeing, Bar 1855 Gin Garden at Martinhal Lisbon Chiado is the perfect place to relax. Paying homage to the year the building was constructed, the bar features traditional curved brick ceilings, Portuguese tile-inspired artwork, and a welcoming atmosphere. Guests can indulge in a carefully curated gin selection or try signature cocktails like “Beauty and the Beast”, a smoky Mezcal blend, or “Summer in Paris”, a refreshing mix of Tanqueray 10, St. Germain, and sparkling wine. 

Lisbon is a city that captures hearts, whether through its storied past, vibrant streets, or sunlit terraces overlooking the Tagus. And with Martinhal Lisbon Chiado as your home away from home, your family’s journey through Portugal’s capital will be filled with unforgettable moments, effortless comfort, and the magic of discovery.
