Højdepunkter

Alfama is where it all started, the oldest and most picturesque district of Lisbon. The core of the old town was built and enlarged, then shaken and destroyed, reborn and rebuilt again, only to start all over again, for more than two thousand years. That’s why we propose an unusual tour, with a good deal of improvisation and a handful of dazzling discoveries. All-time favorites include a restaurant framed by Roman walls, public restrooms six feet below -with a residential building inside-, a majestic royal palace converted into a dark prison, or a collection of decorative tiles that no one knows (not even thieves) whether they are cheap replicas or precious originals. By the way, does anyone still live in what increasingly resembles an amusement park for tourists?

Rute

  1. Ore first stop offers an open view over Alfama whimsical skyline, the majestic Straw River and its South Bank

    20 min

  2. First and only Romanesque monument remaining in town, the Lisbon Cathedral is half a church, half a fortress. Some say it's almost a new medieval cathedral, as it was radically rebuilt in the 30's of the 20th century.

    15 min

  3. An awesome medieval fake window, opened in south wall of the Cathedral's Cloister and, on the other side of the road, a XIXth century smithy with a facade covered with rare ceramic tiles

    10 min

  4. A place of miracles and public hangings. One of the best fado houses and also a wonderful baroque small church are just around the corner

    10 min

  5. That's where you finally found out what "Alfama" means, in the midst of a dazzling urban puzzle, including a fado restaurant with an archaeological museum inside

    10 min

  6. One of the rare surviving manor houses of the Age of Maritime Exploration, now also hosting Foundation José Saramago. Astonishing archeological findings in the ground floor.

    15 min

  7. The old Onion Market now converted into a garden and all the refurbished shops around it. At this very moment, it's certainly one of the most lively places in town.

    15 min

  8. One of the 12 doors that where daily opened in Medieval Lisbon, framed by two noble houses, one waiting to be refurbished, the other a five stars hotel with its own archeological treasures

About Lissabon

Lissabon vælter ned ad sine bakker mod Tejos munding, en by med kakkelklædte facader, raslende gule sporvogne, udsigtspunkter og sene, rolige middage.

De gamle kvarterer rummer det meste af charmen. Alfamas virvar af stræder klatrer op mod Castelo de São Jorge og genlyder af fado om aftenen, Baixas ordnede gadenet løber ned til det enorme Praça do Comércio ved floden, og Bairro Alto og Chiado blander boghandlere og caféer om dagen med barer om natten. Udsigtspunkter som Santa Luzia og Senhora do Monte indrammer røde tage og skinnende vand.

Top-ranked sights in Lissabon: Commerce Square (Praça do Comércio), Pena National Palace (Palacio Nacional da Pena), Alfama.
