photoop, architecture, walk, view, Lisbon, Portugal, free, Lisboa
The Alfama is one of the most picturesque and historically interesting areas of Lisbon.
No trip to Lisbon would be complete without a stroll through the Alfama. The word, Alfama, is a derivative of an Arabic word meaning hot springs and is reflective of the enduring Moorish influence in Lisbon.
Take Tram 28 up to the stop for St. George’s Castle. Enjoy the view of the city from the viewpoint (miradouro) and then walk down the steps next to the viewpoint and start wondering the medieval alleys. At night the area comes alive with numerous restaurants and fado houses.
