Seat Map Strategy

Front‑left (City Center) for Avenida da Liberdade → Baixa.
Right side (Belém) for riverside stretches leaving Cais do Sodré.

Light and Lenses

Golden hour: soft skyline frames; prioritize Belém and MAAT.
Midday: architecture detail; shadow play under arcades.
Phone tip: Use HDR sparingly; clean lenses before rides.

Photogenic Stretches

Portas do Sol → Alfama rooftops.
MAAT → water reflections and curves.
Oceanário boardwalks during sunset.

Golden hour on the Belém riverfront is unbeatable — aim for Yellow Boat or the Belém Loop at last light.
