Alfama is where it all began - the oldest and the most picturesque neighborhood in Lisbon. We propose a whimsical itinerary of amazing discoveries, including a restaurant crossed by a Roman wall, public bathrooms with Renaissance buildings inside and luxury tiles that nobody can tell (not even thieves) if they are copies or precious originals.We’re talking about a district which was constantly built up, fell to ruins and rebuilt again, without a plan or a real sense of order through more than two thousand years of history. We propose a whimsical itinerary of amazing discoveries, including a restaurant crossed by a Roman wall, public bathrooms with Renaissance buildings inside, the most elegant Portuguese royal palace converted into a dark prison and luxury tiles that nobody can tell (not even thieves) if they are copies or precious originals. And does anyone still lives in this open air museum?
