- Lisbon is a beautiful city with a unique landscape, as it is built on a series of steep hills that offer stunning views of the city and the river Tagus. However, due to its hilly terrain, getting around the city can be a challenging task for those with mobility issues, such as wheelchair users or individuals with walking sticks. The city’s streets are often narrow, steep, and uneven, and many of them are made up of cobblestones or have steps that make it difficult for people with physical disabilities to navigate.
- There are 200ish stairs to climb
