    {
      "q": "Is Lisbon expensive?",
      "a": "No. A meal for two at a proper tasca (with wine, bread, everything) costs 30–40 euros. Hotels are tourist-priced. Skip the waterfront restaurants. Eat where locals eat. Tram tickets are 1.50 euros. Walking is free. The city rewards people who leave Baixa (downtown) and climb toward Alfama."
    },
    {
      "q": "When should I avoid?",
      "a": "July and August are hot and crowded. Locals flee on weekends. August especially — many restaurants close. June festivals (Santo António, São João) are loud and wonderful if you're in the mood; claustrophobic if you're not. Easter is packed. December is mildly touristed. May and September-October are nearly perfect."
    },
    {
      "q": "Is it safe to walk at night?",
      "a": "Yes. Lisbon is safe. Bairro Alto and Alfama are fine — well-lit, full of people, music until late. Príncipe Real is very safe. Alcântara riverside is safe. Use normal city sense. Pickpockets work on tram 28 and crowded trains during peak hours — watch your pockets."
    },
    {
      "q": "How do I get around?",
      "a": "Walk. Buy a Viva Viagem card at any station (reloadable). Trams are 1.50 euros per journey. Tram 28 is the tourist route (very slow, very crowded). Tram 12 or 15 are less crowded. The city is small enough to walk across in an hour. Stairs connect neighborhoods. That's the point."
    },
    {
      "q": "Do I need to visit Sintra or Cascais?",
      "a": "Sintra is mandatory — 40 minutes by train from Terreiro do Paço. Palaces, ferns, clouds. Go in the morning, when tour groups haven't arrived. Cascais is optional — beach town, mild, 30 minutes west. Go if the weather is perfect and you want to swim. Otherwise, Lisbon is enough for three days."
    },
    {
      "q": "Where should I stay?",
      "a": "Príncipe Real if you want comfort and quietness. Alfama if you want atmosphere (and stairs). Bairro Alto if you want to stay up late (and hear others staying up late). Chiado is a compromise — boutique hotels, quieter than Bairro Alto, still central. Avoid Baixa (touristy, loud, expensive) and the modern Parque das Nações (soulless)."
    },
    {
      "q": "What's the fado deal?",
      "a": "Fado is melancholic folk music — Portuguese blues. Women sing most often, with guitar, about love and loss. Tascas have amateur singers after midnight; restaurants have professionals earlier. It's not a show — it's a ritual. Order food, order wine, let it happen. The best places don't advertise; locals find them."
    },
    {
      "q": "Can I see the pastéis de nata being made?",
      "a": "Yes. Go to Fábrica dos Pastéis de Nata in Belém early morning (7–9am). Watch the bakers fold dough and fill custard. Buy one warm. The monastery kitchen where they were invented (1837) is part of the Jerónimos — sometimes they demonstrate in the café. Arrive before 10am or the crowd overwhelms it."
