Divided into separate precincts, each section takes in one or more of Lisbon’s traditional districts, listing the best shops, restaurants, bars and sights to see in the area, with insider reviews of both outstanding attractions and hidden gems, as well as easy-to-use maps.Lisbon Pocket Precincts also includes a selection of 'field trips' that encourages you to venture further afield, to the natural beauty of Sintra and Comporta, as well as the beautiful northern city of Porto.
