Lisbon by night/Lisboa à noite

Here's some pictures I took of various sights at night. I've posted pretty much all of these in more or less the same locations at daytime, but it's always nice to see a different perspective.

Here's the parliament building at night, looking west down Travessa da Peixeira.

This is Castelo de São Jorge from the Miradouro São Pedro de Alcântara.

Here's a shot encompassing the Castelo, Alfama, Rossio, and Baixa, from the same viewpoint.

On New Year's Eve, we went down to the Praça do Comercio in the Baixa. It was fun, but it wasn't until afterwards that we found out the city's main festivities had been relocated at the last minute to the Parque das Naçoes. Oh well. Here's a few shots from that night.

This is looking down Rua Augusta (a large pedestrian-only thoroughfare) towards the Praça. That glowing red thing in the middle of the street was an art installation which was only there for a few days.

And here's the same view looking the opposite direction, north down Rua Augusta from the Praça.

In case you're curious, here's a close up of the top of the arch:

And looking up from underneath:

With the river behind me, here's a view encompassing the Praça, with the Castelo in the background.
