Lisbon, the dazzling city that stretches along the banks of the River Tagus before it meets the Atlantic Ocean, has been the capital of Portugal since 1255, making it the second oldest capital city in Europe. The charm of this scenic, hillside city resides in its strong links to the past; restored palaces, majestic churches, and an imposing hilltop castle reflect the city's rich cultural heritage. Hard Rock Cafe Lisboa, located downtown at Av. da Liberdade just off “Praca dos Restauradores,” offers the ultimate discovery of modern times and launches you into an atmosphere of electrifying and priceless music memorabilia.
