2
Praca do Comercio (Terreiro do Paco) Admire this vast waterfront square and discover the past of this amazing space. Facing the Tagus (Tejo) to the South, the city square is still commonly known in Portuguese as Terreiro do Paço as it hosted the Paço da Ribeira until it was destroyed by the great 1755 Lisbon earthquake. After the earthquake, the square was completely remodeled as part of the rebuilding of the Pombaline Downtown (Baixa), ordered by Sebastião José de Carvalho e Melo, 1st Marquis of Pombal, who was (chief) Minister of Portugal from 1750 to 1777, during the reign of the Portuguese King José I. From the 19th century onwards, Praça do Comércio became the seat of some of the most important Portuguese state departaments.

Casa dos Bicos-Museu de Lisboa Originally built in 1521 is a great example of the 16th-century architectural style of Lisbon. Today, it is the headquarters of the José Saramago Foundation, which is dedicated to the works and message of the only Portuguese author to have won the Nobel Prize for Literature so far.

Museu do Fado The Fado Museum preserves and exhibits the legacy and cultural influence of Fado, the traditional Portuguese guitar-led music style.

Alfama Learn the history of Alfama. Alfama is Lisbon's most emblematic quarter and one of the most rewarding for walkers and photographers thanks to its medieval alleys and outstanding views. Because its foundation is dense bedrock, it survived the 1755 earthquake, and a walk through this old-fashioned residential neighborhood is now a step back in time.

Lisbon Cathedral Commissioned by King Afonso I of Portugal in 1150 and built where a Mosque erected by the Islamic Moors once stood, the cathedral is the most important Catholic building in the city. The long series of collapses and renovation works made today's Cathedral a mixture of styles.
