  • Discover Lisbon with Our Guide!
    The 7th Conference of European Survey Research Association welcomes you to the fashionable city of Lisbon! Lisbon, the most westerly capital in mainland Europe, is one of the few cities in the world to offer a unique natural landscape. It’s for sure one of the most impressively located, with a series of hills facing the Tejo estuary, one of the sunniest and probably one of the least expensive cities to discover. Being a city built on hills, from the various belvederes, installed in the highest points, can enjoy breathtaking views. We highlight the castle of S. Jorge, where we reach the cacilheiros in their crossing to the south bank, the 25th April bridge, Rossio, Carmo convent, Bairro Alto, Eduardo VII park, among other points of the city. Alongside the old city, with a very rich heritage, Lisbon is also a modern city that has been renewed in new cultural and leisure proposals.
