 Lisbon - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
It is important to say that, unlike most major cities, the city boundaries are narrowly defined around the historical city perimeter.
This gave rise to the existence of several administratively defined cities around Lisbon, such as Loures, Amadora and Oeiras, which in fact are part of the metropolitan perimeter of Lisbon.
The historic centre of Lisbon is built on seven hills, making some of the city's streets too steep for motor vehicles; the city is served by three funicular services and one elevator.
