Great photos of an awesome city.
I've been there twice in the past couple of years and it's become one of my favorite cities in Europe. It's probably wrong to call Lisbon the "next Barcelona", since it's obviously well known and has its own (probably more notable) history. But in the sense that for a while Barcelona seemed like everyone's favorite city, I think Lisbon can achieve that status. The food is awesome, the drinking is good, the clubs are fun, the beaches are better, and it's still quite cheap.
