Alfama (Pass By)
a genuine walk through Lisbon Alfama is one of the most genuine districts of Lisbon, its architecture presents peculiar characteristics of old and colorful buildings that give it a character of joy and tranquility. Strolling through the Alfama district is an invitation to get lost in extremely charming alleys. Easy to get lost in, even easier to find! Alfama is one of the oldest districts of Lisbon and was founded by the Arabs who gave it the name "Al-hama", which means "source of warm waters, good waters". One does not live a genuine experience in Lisbon without getting lost among the alleys and charms of the neighborhood that is considered the heart of the city. As you walk along the narrow, narrow streets of Alfama, you will feel in a small village and witness conversations between neighbors, listen to the fado that echoes down the stairs and still see the Tagus in another dimension.
Miradouro Sao Pedro de Alcantara
by a belvedere that is surrounded by peculiar details of Lisbon. Whether on a day or night tour, have a few hours to enjoy the most beautiful views of the city of Lisbon at the viewpoint of São Pedro de Alcântara. Being there is a perfect invitation to enjoy a geometric garden composed of statues of heroes and gods of Greco-Roman mythology, like Minerva and Ulysses; and also the most privileged and complete panoramic view of the Castle of São Jorge and its walls, the district of Alfama and Baixa. If you are a detail by nature, take advantage of the viewpoint telescope and enjoy the smallest details of the view, such as the Tagus River and the several new areas of Lisbon such as wide avenues, modern and old buildings with its most varied types of peculiar roofs, the Cathedral Cathedral, among other peculiarities. If you sigh for the details of Lisbon through the belvedere, you lose yourself in the midst of so many peculiarities, take a peek at the tile panel with the map of the city represented, which is next to the telescope. This panel of tiles was executed by Fred Kradolfer in 1952 and is there to facilitate orientation, much like a map of Lisbon. Perfect, is not it? The viewpoint of São Pedro de Alcântara is not only pleasant to rest under the trees that compose it, sitting in one of the many comfortable benches. It is also one of the most common places for evening gatherings, especially before heading to the famous nightlife of the Alto district.

Basilica da Estrela

Guardian of our individuality and universality, he saw this status confirmed when, in 1983, it was classified by UNESCO as "Cultural Heritage of All Humanity".
