Braga is Portugal's third biggest city, but don't be fooled into thinking it is a sprawling, noisy metropolis. Braga feels distinctly provincial, a pleasant and walkable city with a 12th-century cathedral and lots of medieval churches. But the biggest attraction here is the Bom Jesus do Monte sanctuary, just outside of the city and easily reachable by local bus. The sanctuary, which is perched on a hill, has a church and gardens that can be accessed by funicular or the zig-zagging baroque staircase.

Honestly, one of my favorite sites in Portugal. See here about a Tour of Braga and Guimaraes. It includes a stop at the Bom Jesus as well as the city of Guimaraes (mentioned further down).

It's also a very hilly city, and maps can be deceptive when they show two parallel streets (when one is thirty metres above the other). The map of Lisbon here is quite handy for orienting yourself, and you can search for streets as well. When you open the page, the map will show what might be considered to be the "centre" of Lisbon....

Directly below the red marker is the Baixa, stretching from the Rossio (Praça Dom Pedro IV) down to the riverbank of the Tejo (at the Praça do Comércio. The Baixa is the area of town which was rebuilt first after the earthquake of 1755, which destroyed that area almost entirely. Highlights are the squares at either end, with their equestrian statues and (in particular) the triumphal Arco da Victória facing the river. To the left of that moving towards the top of the map up a steep hill away from the river are the Chiado and the Bairro Alto - the Chiado is a shopping/residential area. Lisbon travel guide.
