Detailed itinerary

1

Pink Street, in the Cais do Sodré, is one of those streets that draws attention DE far away. The floor is literally pink, and that already ensures amazing photos. Today it is one of the most famous places DE Lisbon, especially among those who want to combine history, animation and a different look.

Stop 2

The Largo do Carmo is one of those corners DE Lisbon that surprises by its calm. In the middle of the Chiado and so close to the bustle DA the city, it looks like a quiet refuge, surrounded POR trees, historic buildings and that charm that only Lisbon has.

The highlight, of course, are the ruins of the Carmo Convent. They stand there, imposing, open to the sky, reminiscent of the Readership of the 1755 earthquake. It's impossible to look at those giant walls and not imagine what's already happened in there. It's a living, exposed history, without filters.

The breeze also has a strong connection with the recent history DE Portugal. It was there that, in 1974, the troops of the Craves Revolution gathered and surrounded the headquarters DA PIDE, marking one of the most important moments DA Portuguese democracy, that DA the dictatorship! In other words, it is a place where different times cross.

3

The Museum DE São Roque is one of those places in Lisbon that many people pass by nearby without realizing the treasure that is hidden. It is located next to the Church DE São Roque in the Bairro Alto, and holds one of the most beautiful and impressive Collections DE sacred art DA the city.

Once DE enter, you can see that nothing is simple here. The museum has several rooms with paintings, sculptures, relics, pieces in gold and silver... All very well preserved. But the grain DE stack, and that leaves anyone with his mouth open, is the famous Chapel of St. John the Baptist, considered one of the most expensive and worked chapels in the world. It was made in Rome, with precious materials, and then sent to Lisbon piece POR piece. It's a green show of detail

Stop 4

The Miradouro DE San Pedro DE Alcântara is one of those places that makes anyone stop and breathe deeply. It is there, in Bairro Alto, on top DA hill, with a view so complete DE Lisbon that it looks like an open postcard in front of it.

From here you see the Castle DE São Jorge, the Baixa, the Sé Cathedral, the river Tagus at the background... Everything was organized as if Lisbon had prepared this scenario just for you to admire. It is a mirage with an amazing view, with a beautiful garden, statues, beds and a tiled map that helps DA to identify each point of the landscape.

5

The Palace DE Saint Benedict is one of those places that impresses DE face. You turn the corner and face a huge, elegant building, full DE columns and stairs that make us feel like you are right DE front DE something important. And it is. Here works the Assembly DA Republic, the Portuguese parliament, where the big decisions of the country are made.

6
Stop 6

The Basilica DA Estrela is one of those churches that makes people stop POR a second just to admire. She appears on the horizon with that huge, white dome, illuminated by the sun, and already gives a chance DE enter before even knowing the story. It is right in front of the Garden DA Estrela, so the scenery already helps: it is all beautiful, calm and with that charm typical DE Lisbon.

The basilica was commissioned to be built by Queen Dona Maria I as a form DE thanksgiving for the birth of her son. And, of course, they didn't spare capricho. It is wide, clear, full of colorful marble, golden details and a harmony that impresses without exaggerating. It's the kind DE place that conveys peace just DE entering.
