Vora el riu Montsant, poc abans d’entrar al poble, s’observen restes dels Molins de Lliura. Al carrer Major sobresurt l’Església de la Nativitat, d’estil neoclàssic però amb elements barrocs. Des dels carrers Metge Curcó i Enric Ventosa es contemplen espectaculars miradors de la vall i el Montsant. El terme de La Bisbal compta amb indrets naturals de gran bellesa, com la Cova Emboixa i la Cova Foradada. Es pot anar d'excursió al Montsant per l'antic camí de Cabacés; de fet, els voltants del poble estan plens de camins i senders.
