Fundacao Medeiros e Almeida Foundation, Lisbon
Artistic delight in Lisbon museum.
Those looking for a culture-crammed visit to Lisbon may well wish to visit the Fundacao Medeiros e Almeida Foundation.
Set in the heart of the city, the museum features more than 2,000 items on display in 26 rooms, so visitors are sure to be hard-pressed to find something which is not captivating.
Some of the many pieces on display include 16th century paintings and Portuguese sculptures, in addition to jewellery and textiles.
Chinese pottery and 17th century furniture are just some of the other exhibits tourists will be able to observe.
However, if you find this all too much to take in at once, why not take a breather at the cafe with a drink and snack?
Meanwhile, those wishing to take home a souvenir of their visit should stop at the museum gift shop where they will be able to purchase a variety of items.
But don't let a trip to the Portuguese city stop there, as visitors during the summer months can take in the free five-week Estoril Music Festival.
