Everyone stumbles into or over Lisbon at least once! While this may not be a saying yet, it could soon become one, believes Martin Zinggl, who takes us through the cobblestones and staircases of the Portuguese capital. Tourism in Lisbon has been thriving for years—some call it an invasion, while others refer to it as a boom. But even as Lisbon grows into a global city again, it remains, at its core, a timeless village where everyone shares the same concerns. Martin Zinggl shares the light and shadow sides of the city by the Tagus River and its residents, the Lisboetas. His reports take him to the oldest doll hospital in the world and to illegal Chinese restaurants. He spray paints walls with graffiti grandmothers, learns that the slum of Lisbon is a media invention, and is guided through the city of seven hills by an extreme mountaineer.
