The Core of Alfama
An important part of the city’s identity for its history, architecture and its people.
Step back in time and discover Lisbon’s ancient historical soul. Alfama still retains features, from its medieval Moorish past, with narrow and labyrinth like street’s, steps and arcades.
It is at the core of Alfama that a vibrant community is still in touch with Lisbon authentic old-way of life. Poets and Fado songs were inspired by this liveliness and constant energy.
