Visit Rossio Square and Restauradores Square
Visit Rossio Square, the heart of both old and new Lisbon. Learn how the city of Lisbon was destroyed in the 18th century and then totally rebuilt to become the city of today. Take a look at the Obelisk on the Restauradores Square, commemorating the Restoration of Portugal’s independence from Spain in 1640, after sixty years of Spanish rule. Marvel at the intricate Neo-Manueline architecture of the Rossio Central Station.
Discover Carmo Square and Chiado Neighborhood
Learn about the Carnation Revolution of 1974 as you visit the beautiful Carmo Square, the place where Portugal’s old dictatorial regime fell after 48 years. Walk through the elegant Chiado neighborhood, with its old cafés, theatres, and bookstores. Take a pause to try the typical Portuguese pastry – the famous Pastel de Nata – and understand why it is so popular in our country.
Wander the Alfama Neighborhood
Wander through the old maze of small squares and narrow alleyways of the Moorish Alfama neighborhood, where time seems to have stopped a thousand years ago. Learn about Fado, Portugal’s own musical genre, as you go past the Fado Museum and some of Alfama’s hidden, intimate Fado restaurants.
Enjoy Wine and Tapas, and Visit Historical Landmarks
Stop for a glass of green wine and a tapa tasting at a typical wine bar. Pass by Lisbon’s Cathedral, the city’s oldest church, built in 1147. Finish your tour in Praça do Comércio, formerly the entrance hall of the city, one of Europe’s largest and most beautiful squares.
