The fifth Lisbon Triennale promises five exhibitions, 12 special projects and plenty of architectural plans to get lost in.

Whatever the reason, as anyone who has ever hit the rootftop knows, basking in the sun (or better yet, watching it go down), or taking in a city by night, cocktail in hand beats terrestrial bars, however stylishly assembled, any day. Here are a few high performers sure to give you a fresh perspective.
