Do you have a question about this home or the local area?
We should, first of all, give a shout-out to this studio home's address. It's within walking distance of the Santa Justa Elevator, the vibrant district of Bairro Alto and the São Jorge Castle. So, that's the location – what about the apartment? Well, it's lovely and bright, and there's room for a sofa and dining table. The kitchen is compact, but it has an oven and hob, so you can cook some Portuguese cuisine. We love the views out over Praça da Figueira and the surrounding pastel-hued houses, too.

Local guide
About Mouraria
With street performers, Fado shows and lots of unmissable sights, Mouraria should be at the top of your list. A trip through its narrow streets is like stepping back in time, revisiting the rich cultural background even before the great earthquake of 1755. In fact, the story goes that Fado was born in Mouraria, and it’s since made its way to the UNESCO World Heritage list. Although it’s quite central, this neighbourhood has a strong local community and an independent art scene that will show you a side of old, nostalgic Lisbon that you won’t find anywhere else.
