Summary

Pathe synopsis: A brief visit to the capital of Britain’s oldest ally - Portugal, to see some of the architectural gems, both ancient and modern, that make Lisbon a city of contrasts. The happy haunting ground of ex-monarchs, Estoril, and the sardine boats at Cascais complete a picture of gaiety and dignity.
