Lisbon is Europe's most loveable capital — hilly, faded-beautiful, impossibly affordable, and bathed in that famous soft Atlantic light. The neighbourhood tram lines still run, the Fado music in Alfama is as melancholic as ever, and the pastéis de nata at Pastéis de Belém have a two-decade queue for good reason.
