    Miradouro da Senhora do Monte

    Find a spot on the terrace at Miradouro da Senhora do Monte. This is the highest viewpoint in Lisbon, facing WSW, so you will have a clear view of the sun setting over the river. The chapel is in front of you, and the city sprawls out below. It is a 49-minute walk from the anchor, so start early if you are coming from there.

    Come Prima

    Head down to Come Prima for dinner. It is an Italian restaurant known for fresh pasta and wood-oven pizzas, located just a 7-minute walk from the anchor. The atmosphere is lively and the wine list is extensive. Since it is after sunset, the restaurant will be open for the evening service until 23:00 on weekdays.

    Okah Restaurante

    Walk two minutes to Okah Restaurante for a nightcap or a light bite. This Asian restaurant stays open until 23:00 on weekdays, making it a convenient stop after a long dinner. It is right near the anchor, so you can end your evening close to where you started.
