What to see in Lisbon's Baixa district?
After leaving your car, in just a few minutes you're in the heart of the city. Here, everything happens at once: immense squares, streets always bustling with people, and viewpoints that appear almost without warning. Baixa is the ideal starting point to begin to experience Lisbon.
Praça do Comércio — The city's grand entrance
Arriving at the square and immediately seeing the Tagus River ahead always has an impact. The yellow buildings and the Rua Augusta Arch give it a monumental feel, but amidst the grandeur, there's always life: tourists taking photos, Lisbonites rushing across, or groups relaxing on benches.
Santa Justa Elevator — A unique view of the city
The wrought-iron elevator connects Baixa to Chiado. There's often a wait, but it's worth it: from up there, the city opens up in all directions—you can see the houses, the Castle, and even the river glistening. It's one of those spots that stays in your memory.
Rossio and Rua Augusta — Shops, Cafes, and Bustle
Rossio is pure hustle and bustle: cafes that seem frozen in time, the ever-imposing National Theater, and the Portuguese pavement that makes everyone stop for photos. From there, heading down Rua Augusta is inevitable: shops, street music, crowded terraces… all blending into the rhythm of the city.
