Sunset at Miradouro da Graça

About This Place

Best place on this route to end the day. Wide city view, good sunset angle, and enough room to just sit for a while. Easy one to send to someone because it feels like a real finish, not just another stop.

Location

Miradouro da Graça - 1170-165 Lisbon, Portugal

Things to Know

Get there before sunset if you want a decent place to sit. Stay a little after sunset. The light on the city is better than people expect.

Photo Tips

Camera settings
Expose for the sky, not the city. It is easy to blow the colour out here.
Photo tips
Wide shots work for the full view, but tighter shots on rooftops and the castle are great too. A few people in silhouette usually make the frame better here.

This is the stop I would never cut. Bring a drink, sit down early, stay through the afterglow.
