My favourite spot in Lisboa, it may not be the hippest place but is is definitly the most charming one. There is a lot of climbing and descending involved strolling through this neibourhood but it is worth it. This is still a community where people know each other and this shows in so many ways making an afternoon stroll here very charming. Don't go walking here with a map in your hand but just get lost and find your own local restaurant with a worn down interior and great food. If you can you should go and visit this place the first weeks of June during the Festas dos Santos Populares, with as the summit the Festa de Sao Antonio (around the 14th of June) when you can sit down in one of the many impromptu restaurants and gorge yourself in sardines and sangria. There are also a lot of other local delicatessen to found in one of the many stands, I liked the cherry liquor a lot. And after the eating and drinking you can dance the night away one of the squares where they play live music.

es el albaycín a la portuguesa, lleno de cuestas con adoquines que resvalan si llueve, y tranvías que cuando se desenganchan de los cables se sube el conductor a volver en engancharlo a hostia limpia, curioso de ver...
Si vas a comprar el perdiódico español que no se te olvide pagar el pico ese por estar fuera de España.

The old town, on a hill, lots of cobbled streets and higgeldy-piggeldy buildings in pastel colours. Great views of Lisbon at various viewing platforms. Little bars and restaurants come alive in the evenings with traditional Fado music, fab food and relaxing vistas.

Alfama is the oldest part of Lisbon. Full of narrow (very) streets and alleys, steep stairs and cozy little restaurants where you may have a chance to hear authentic fado.

Pay a visit to the "Casa do Fado", the Fado Museum, if you're into local music.

Alfama, the old town. Prepare to walk a lot and climb a lot of stairs up and down! It's totally worth it though, very picturesque part of the city. This is the district to visit if you want to find a place to listen to fados or shop for fresh fish!
