Of all Lisbon’s neighborhoods, Alfama is the most bewitching. This is the city’s oldest quarter, it’s warren of narrow streets and crooked lanes steeped in history and are a joy to explore with amazing views on the top of Lisbon's highest hill.
Saved only in part from the devastation of the 1755 earthquake, Alfama was the moorish section of the capital. Now, it has the charm, the soul, the atmosphere and the small-town quality you dream about. Renovated homes are great deals and many often come with wonderful river views.
