Lisbon's grandest square faces the river, and was originally designed to welcome those arriving in the city by boat. What you see today is the 18th-century version, as the original square, named "Terreiro do Paço" and home to the royal palace, was destroyed in the 1755 earthquake. It was rebuilt with a triumphal arch facing the Tagus, and the surrounding arcaded buildings held government offices for many years. At the center is a monument to King José I. The square is also home to the city's oldest café, "Martinho da Arcada", and to the monumental Pousada hotel. There is also a tourist office, while across from it is the Lisboa Story Center, which presents the history of the city. Under the

Inaugurated in 1902 as public transportation linking Baixa (downtown) and the Chiado district, this 45m-high (148 ft) elevator is one of Lisbon's main landmarks. It's one of the city's most visited and most photographed monuments, offering a breathtaking 360-degree view from the top. The neo-Gothic iron tower is embellished with ornamented designs, and covers two elegant wooden cabins carrying 20 passengers at a time. It was designed by Raul Mesnier du Ponsard, an engineer of French descent, who used the techniques and the materials in vogue in France at the time, as seen in the Eiffel Tower a few years earlier.

Welcome home, this quaint medieval district (once the Moorish and Jewish quarter before it became a fishing community) is the oldest neighborhood in Europe after El Pópulo in Cadiz. It's like a small village, standing as a time capsule to the years before Lisbon was destroyed by the 1755 earthquake, as it remained standing thanks to its rock-solid foundations. Put away your map and wander aimlessly through its "becos" (alleys) and "largos" (small squares), allowing your senses to be the guides. You'll see magnificent river views and laundry out to dry from balconies, smell fish being grilled in a corner, hear the sounds of Fado coming out of a restaurant, taste authentic traditional meals.
