Alfama is not only one of the oldest and most picturesque neighborhoods in Lisbon, but it was also one of the few that survived the 1755 earthquake. As a result, the city has retained its familiar charm. Interestingly, the neighborhood’s name originates from the Arabic ‘Al-hamma,’ meaning ‘hot springs’ or ‘baths.’ Adorned with beautiful tiles, Alfama’s steep, winding alleys offer breathtaking views over a sea of terracotta roofs and the Tagus River. The scents of traditional Portuguese cuisine, the sounds of fado, and the chatter of elderly Portuguese residents make this neighborhood one of the most authentic in Lisbon! The tour begins in Rossio, passing through key areas before reaching the heart of Alfama, where a stop at Miradouro Portas do Sol is included, concluding at the cathedral.
