Ajuda Walking Tour
The Ajuda neighbourhood is the hidden gem of Lisbon. The one you rarely hear about but where it will be easier for you to capture the flavour of a city still hidden from the tourist’s eyes. Being the Lisbon´s countryside until the devastating earthquake of 1755, it became the political centre of Portugal and the permanent residence of the royal family from then on, in a period of crisis and decay immortalized by the never finished Palace of Ajuda. One of the cribs of the city´s industrial revolution and emerging working class in the 18 hundreds, the narrow cobblestones streets and quiet alleys still show a live traditional Lisbon, softly embraced by the new artistic scene that is slowly occupying the hills of Ajuda. The old greets the new at every corner and we invite you to come and see the all story with a view to the river you will never forget.
