Lisbon is art.

My Scholarship entry - A 'place' I have visited

What Lisbon gives me is magical. There are some places, where you can’t explain what you feel, because it’s just a feeling. Lisbon is one of those. It’s not just a city, it’s a mixture of art, history, people, culture. The spirit, which flies over it, is what makes is so special. To walk on the streets, to meet all these people, without knowing them, without understanding their language, but still feeling the emotions on their faces, to inhale every little detail from those stunning buildings. Masterpiece of architecture, filled with history. 
How many people have walked on that street? How many souls have been here? Every one of them is a piece of this city. The people - that’s what gives a city it’s final ingredient. And the buildings? They just keep standing there, watching, being pretty. They just keep imbibing pieces of those souls and then keep telling stories to strangers like me. Because these buildings - they are speaking, they are so filled with memories and feelings, that’s impossible not to feel them.
