Lisbon is one of the best European cities to go out in. The Bairro Alto is a neighborhood that never sleeps and while you could perhaps skip it during the day, once you see it at night you might be curious to see it in the morning to see what chaos leaves behind. Recommendations:

Mahjong Bar

  • To hear deep house in Lisbon try Mahjong. It is also a great place to get a cocktail. Try the gin and tonic.
Rua da Atalaia 3 | Bairro Alto, 1200Lisbon 1200-036
Portugal
 
Hours: 8:00AM – 2:00AM

The Parking Terrace

  • An architectural marvel that plays great music while providing views of the whole city. You don’t have to worry about angry neighbors because it is built at the top of a parking garage. Dance awhile here before you make your way across town to after hours clubs.

Park, Calçada do Combro, 58, Bairro Alto, Lisbon, Portugal

Hours:
Tuesday to Saturday – 12:30 to 02:00

Finalmente

  • The drag show is spectacular and starts at 3 (or was it 4).  It will leave you walking home with the sun rise and might be the best way to learn Faro hits.

In the morning go to Belem to see the city by day.
