Here's my list of Lisbon sightseeing: Sandy in LA

With their jolts and twisty turns, Libson's antique trams, which date from 1901, feel and look like they belong in a ride at Disney World rather than in a major European city. Line 28 runs from the Basilica da Estrela, skirts the Bairro Alto and the central shopping district, ending up at Largo do Martin Moniz, within walking distance of the castle of Sao Jorge. At times there's just a single track, and the cobblestone streets are so narrow that you can literally touch the sides of the buildings if you lean out of the tram's large windows. Fares are 160 escudos (85 cents) for a single ride if bought from the driver on board, or 450 ($2.40) for a day pass, available from Carris (the city transit) kiosks throughout the city.

Tower of Belem (Torre de Belem) 5-story tower built in early 1500s.

Walk along Beco do Mexias, rua da Regueira, which is lined with restaurants and shops; and Patio das Flores, a little square with houses faced in tile. Visit also the fish market at the foot of the Alfama and you will see fishwives march about with baskets of fish on their heads.
