Visiting São Jorge Castle was one of the highlights of our trip to Lisbon. The views from the top are absolutely stunning—you can see the whole city, the river, and those beautiful red rooftops. It really feels like stepping back in time with all the old walls and history around you. One of the most unique and memorable parts was seeing peacocks just walking around freely inside the castle grounds. They were so calm and beautiful, adding a special charm to the place. It’s not something you expect, and it made the experience even more magical. The atmosphere is very relaxing, perfect for walking around, taking photos, and just enjoying the scenery. Definitely worth visiting if you’re in Lisbon!

A wonderful experience! Stunning views, and very clean. There are tons of peacocks roaming freely on the grounds, and since it’s baby season, it’s absolutely gorgeous!

It was a climb to get there but worth it for the views. Best to get your online tickets before you go, in order to avoid the lines. There are peacocks everywhere and even saw several hens with chicks. Disappointed that three archaeological dig was routed off. That would have been interesting. But overall we're glad we went

Stunning views of Lisbon from an historic location. We bought tickets on line. Instruction could have been a bit clearer about downloading app to view and show tickets and signage at entrance for entering (w/ and w/o tickets) could have been clearer. Overall visit was worth it.

A visit to this castle is definitely worth it, if only for the stunning view of Lisbon. Just make sure you’re not afraid of heights—or peacocks ;-) I recommend buying a ticket in advance, as the line at the ticket office can be long.

  • These tickets are valid for 30 days from the date of purchase.

  • Combine two unique panoramic views of Lisbon with one cost-saving ticket.

    Rua Augusta Arch

    The Rua Augusta Arch, which can be seen on the busy Praça do Comércio square, is a symbolic structure in Portugal's capital city. The earthquake that leveled the city in 1755 served as motivation for its growth in the 19th century, representing the city's will to rise again from the ashes of the disaster it endured. A monumental gateway built in the neoclassical style, it has a statue of the goddess of victory, winged figures, and reliefs depicting scenes from the city's reconstruction. Pass under the arch and take in the sights of Praça do Comércio and the city below. This spot provides a perfect backdrop to photograph the city and river.

    St. George’s Castle

    The impacts of the Visigoths and the Moors can still be seen today on Lisbon’s highest hill. St. George's Castle was named after England's patron saint more than two centuries after it was built, following the Anglo-Portuguese Treaty of 1373. Interactive touch screens inside explain the background of the region around the castle hill. With its thick walls and terraces covered by pine trees, this castle has become the city's most distinctive sight.

    There are a total of ten towers, and you can climb them all! Moorish antiquities like coins, pottery, and tiles were discovered during excavations in the region around the castle and are currently on display there. Peacocks, which can be found in the gardens surrounding the towers, never fail to amaze visitors with their brilliant plumage.
