Lisbon — Alfama, viewpoints & departure prep

Anteprima gratuita

5 hours

Spend a day in Lisbon before heading south. The Alfama district — Lisbon's oldest quarter, built on steep hills above the Tagus — is the soul of the city: tiled houses, fado music drifting from doorways, miradouros (viewpoints) with ceramic cafés. Don't miss Miradouro da Graça at sunset.

Consigli pratici

Campsite: Parque de Campismo de Lisboa, Estrada da Circunvalação, 1700-620 Lisboa (GPS 38.7706, -9.1593). ~€15–20/night. City bus connections.
Do NOT drive a motorhome in central Lisbon — cobblestones, trams, 15% gradients. Park at campsite, use public transport.
Stock up at Pingo Doce or Continente near the campsite — cheaper than Algarve.
Time-Out Market at Ribeira (GPS 38.7076, -9.1460): best food hall, pastel de nata, grilled sardines, bifanas.
Tram 28 ticket: €3. São Jorge Castle entrance: €15.
