With its medieval layout it is not only superbly located (10 minutes walking from the Baixa and Barrio Alto, 5 minutes from the St. George's Castle) but is also the quarter where one can more closely experience traditional Lisbon life. Narrow, curving streets with unexpected corners and small charming plazas offer a plentiful supply of small shops, cafes and restaurants, making it the perfect place for a Lisbon experience! Excellent views of the river Tejo are also afforded.]]> http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/21503
