Convento do Carmo (pass by)

The Convent of Our Lady of Mount Carmel (Portuguese: Convento da Ordem do Carmo) is a former Catholic convent located in the civil parish of Santa Maria Maior, municipality of Lisbon, Portugal. The medieval convent was ruined during the sequence of the 1755 Lisbon earthquake, and the destroyed Gothic Church of Our Lady of Mount Carmel (Portuguese: Igreja do Carmo) on the southern facade of the convent is the main trace of the great earthquake still visible in the old city

Miradouro Da Senhora Do Monte

It was once one of the city's best-kept secrets, but it has been gradually discovered by tour guides and couples in love. It offers a panoramic view of Lisbon, which can also be seen from a small image of the Virgin Mary that gives the viewpoint its name. Behind the image is a small 18th-century chapel, which is almost always closed. An old legend says that pregnant women who sat in the stone chair inside would have easier childbirths. This is one of the highest points in the city, so several monuments can be seen, identified on a tile panel. The viewpoint is very popular at sunset, but during the day there are also those who spend hours in the shade of the olive trees, cypresses and stone pines. To get here, walk along Rua da Graça from Largo da Graça, and turn left onto Rua da Senhora do Monte.

Alfama

This medieval neighborhood (which was once a Jewish quarter and a fishing community) is the oldest neighborhood in Europe, after El Pópulo in Cádiz. It is a small village or medina in the middle of the capital, and a relic from the times before the great earthquake of 1755. It escaped the catastrophe thanks to its solid foundations on the highest hill in the city, which extends to the Graça neighborhood. It is a neighborhood to get lost in alleys and squares, letting yourself be guided by your senses: seeing clotheslines on balconies and fantastic views of the Tagus River, smelling fish grilling on the corner, listening to the sounds of Fado from inside a typical restaurant, savoring traditional dishes and touching magnificent tile panels. This is the most picturesque neighborhood in Lisbon and the true soul of the city. Here life continues as it did centuries ago, but going down to the river you enter the 21st century again, with old warehouses now converted into some of the trendiest

Church of St. Anthony

The Church of Santo António is a building located in the parish of Santa Maria Maior (Sé), in the municipality of Lisbon, Portugal.

Next to it is a small museum dedicated to him.

Baixa, Rossio & Restauradores (pass by)

The Baixa district of Lisbon was completely rebuilt in the 18th century after its destruction by the 1755 earthquake. It was the largest earthquake ever recorded in Europe, but it led to the first neoclassical urban planning and the first large-scale earthquake-resistant construction in the world. Streets were designed with very specific shapes and measurements, and named after the various trades and artisans of the time (shoemakers, gilders, saddlers, gold and silver workers). In the 20th century, many of the buildings were occupied by banks and offices, pushing residents to the Avenidas Novas (New Avenues), and eventually leaving several buildings abandoned. However, in recent years the neighborhood has been reborn as a commercial and tourist center. Many of the streets are pedestrianized, and they connect a series of monumental squares, from Rossio Square with its cafes to Commerce Square with its triumphal arch, to the elegant Municipal Square.

Praca do Comercio (Terreiro do Paco)

Praça do Comércio, Commerce Square in English, is Lisbon’s main square. It was built on the site where the old Royal Palace used to exist before it was destroyed by the earthquake of 1755.The southern end of the plaza is open and looks out onto the Tagus River. The other three sides have yellow-coloured buildings with arcades all along the façade. When the square was first built, the commercial ships would unload their goods directly onto this square, as it was considered the “door” to Lisbon.

Avenida da Liberdade (pass by)

The Lisbon version of the Parisian Champs-Elysées. It is a tree-lined avenue covered in Portuguese cobblestones between Restauradores and Marquês de Pombal squares, and is where the large luxury shops are located, starting on Rua Castilho to the north and then descending the avenue. This is also an area of theaters and beautiful old buildings, although many others were demolished for new constructions in the mid-20th century. However, some remarkable examples still survive, many of them winners of the Valmor Prize, with an impressive example at number 206-218 in Art Nouveau style, now housing a Prada store. Climbing the hill on the eastern side (with the help of the Lavra Elevator) you reach the old parish of Pena, a more typical neighborhood, where the famous fado singer Amália Rodrigues was born, and where you will find a little-known viewpoint, the Miradouro do Torel.

Santuario Nacional de Cristo Rei

It consists of a portico designed by the architect António Lino, standing 75 meters high, topped by a 28-meter-high statue of the Holy Redeemer with open arms facing the city of Lisbon, a work by the Portuguese sculptor Francisco Franco de Sousa. The pedestal, including the portico, rises to 82 meters in height.

Padrao dos Descobrimentos

A panoramic visit to the Monument to the Discoveries evokes the Portuguese overseas expansion, synthesizes a glorious past, and symbolizes the greatness of the work of Prince Henry the Navigator, the driving force behind the discoveries.A stylized caravel sets sail, carrying at its prow Prince Henry the Navigator and some of the protagonists (32) of the overseas exploits and the culture of the time: navigators, cartographers, warriors, colonizers, evangelizers, chroniclers, and artists, are portrayed with the symbols that individualize them.A stylized mast, oriented North-South, has on each face two Portuguese shields, with five quinas (five shields), surrounded by a band with 12 castles and in the center several fleurs-de-lis. Attached to the mast, on each face, are three curved triangular structures, giving the illusion of sails billowing in the wind.
