Why you should visit São Jorge Castle

Located at the top of the Alfama district, this castle is located on the highest of Lisbon's seven hills. King John I, who married Philippa, daughter of the Duke of Lancaster in England in 1371, dedicated this castle to Saint George, the patron saint of England, and it became known as 'São Jorge', which means 'Saint George' in Portuguese.

The inside of the castle used to be a palace and is now a park. Inside the castle is a museum that houses artifacts from the Iron Age, Moorish artifacts from around the 6th century, and royal artifacts from the 18th century, as well as the Tower of Ulysses, which housed the royal family's main documents and treasures, and the Tower of Loyalty, which was used as the general headquarters. The best part of the castle is the view of Lisbon from here. It's really nice to go up and enjoy the view at sunset. It's the perfect place to watch a beautiful sunset.
