Learning Portuguese abroad in Lisbon, Portugal is one of many language immersion programs offered by AmeriSpan. Portugal during the 14th and 15th centuries was one of the most powerful nations in the world, ruling an empire from America to Asia. Although Portugal shares the Iberian Peninsula with Spain, its language and culture are unique. Its shores are lined with sandy beaches and its towns range in size from cosmopolitan cities to charming fishing villages. Modern Portugal, with its stable democracy and fast-growing economy, has brought about cultural revival and international recognition.

Learn Portuguese Language in Portugal:
The capital of Portugal, spread across the hills overlooking the Rio Tajo, is home of 1 millio people. The city possesses the charm and excitement of the old and the new. The city is lively and varied, yet has a surprisingly easy-going pace. From the broad scenic streets to the quaint neighborhood districts to the towering city skyscrapers, its different landscapes make Lisbon a diverse city for the language traveler.
Living a Lisboa experience means encompasses enjoying a fresh pastel de nata (pastel de Belem, pastry) and bica (espresso) on a petite leafy plaza, to window-shopping in elegant Chiado. It’s mingling with Lisboetas at a neighbourhood festival or watching the sunset from the old Moorish castle.
