I was in Lisbon last year actually, really loved the city and the people. As for a few things I can recommend, the Lisbon Oceanarium is pretty neat if your into that kind of thing. Its one of the largest aquariums in the world and is an amazing place to visit. If you want a cool little walk through the city, walk up to the Castle Sao Jorge. It's a medieval castle that overlooks the entire city, aside from being a great spot for pics the castle itself is stunning and has alot of information regarding the castle's history as well as the history of the area.

If you like to drink/party/listen to live music/generally have a good time, then you have to head to the Barrie Alto district. It consists of maybe 15-20 blocks of small narrow streets that come alive at night with bars lining every one, music everywhere and people partying in the street everywhere, its pretty great!

Hope that helps a bit, I was only there for a few days and frankly, drank so much that I've forgotten a few of the names and places I went to, but I think those were the highlights.
