    Itinerario

    1. Commerce Square

      On the site of the current square stood the Royal Palace, the center of Portuguese power until it was destroyed by the earthquake of 1755. Here, in 1640, Portuguese conspirators began the revolt that restored Portugal's independence after 60 years under Spanish rule. Centuries later, in 1908, King Carlos I and his son Luís Filipe were assassinated, precipitating the end of the monarchy. Rebuilt by the Marquis of Pombal, the square became a symbol of modern Lisbon, with the Rua Augusta Arch linking it to Baixa Pombalina. Today, on the banks of the Tagus, it remains one of the city's most iconic sites.

Here, the view opens up to the Alfama district, with its labyrinthine alleyways, historic churches and red roofs. In the distance, we can see the Convento de São Vicente de Fora, founded in the 16th century, which was the scene of important events, including the resistance to the French invasion of 1808.

    3. Miradouro da Senhora do Monte

    4. Rossio Square

      We've arrived at Rossio Square, one of Lisbon's most historic and vibrant places. Officially known as Praça Dom Pedro IV, it has been the scene of important events over the centuries, such as horse races and public executions. During the Middle Ages, the square was linked to the Jewish community that lived in Lisbon, being a central point of commerce and activity. With the arrival of the Inquisition, many Jews were forced to convert to Christianity or leave the city. The square was also the site of the tragic massacre of Jews during the reign of King Manuel I in 1506. This episode, marked by religious intolerance, is one of the shadows in the square's history. After the earthquake of 1755, the square was remodeled under the guidance of the Marquis of Pombal, becoming the heart of modern Lisbon. Today, the square remains a vibrant meeting place, reflecting both the turbulent history and energy of the city

    5. We arrive at Praça do Carmo, one of the most symbolic places in Lisbon, marked by decisive events in the country's modern history. Here, at the Carmo Convent, which dates back to the 14th century, we can still see the imposing ruins that survived the great earthquake of 1755. The convent, which was one of the most important religious institutions in the city, was partially destroyed, but its ruins remain as a memorial to ancient Lisbon. The square is also historic for being the scene of the Carnation Revolution on April 25, 1974, when the dictatorial Estado Novo regime was peacefully deposed. The revolutionary movement got its name from the fact that the military put red carnations on their weapons, symbolizing the freedom won without bloodshed

    6. Basilica da Estrela

      We arrive at the imposing Basílica da Estrela, one of the most beautiful churches in Lisbon and a magnificent example of the Baroque style. Built in the 18th century, the basilica was begun by Queen Maria I as a promise of protection after the birth of her son, the crown prince. Its grandiose façade and the dome that dominates the Lisbon skyline are a landmark in the city's religious architecture. The interior, richly decorated with tiles and paintings, also houses the remains of Queen Maria I. Surrounding the basilica, the Jardim da Estrela offers a peaceful, green space, perfect for a moment of relaxation, while reminding us of the religious and historical importance of this place.
