Once you step off this path you will be transformed back in time into a completely different world. While this is one of the most touristic districts of Lisbon, crowds can be seen only following the route of the famous tram no 28. Just be careful, Feira da Ladra means Thief Fair and there’s, unfortunately, some truth in it. You can buy just about everything here, from second-hand things of all kind to fake bags and antiques. This kind of market is known to be part of Lisbon’s scenery since the 12th century but the name was used for the first time in the 17th century. It’s always crowded here, even in the weekdays, but in the afternoon it looks like the calmest place ever!Įvery Tuesday and Saturday from early morning till afternoon a famous Alfama flea market – Feira da Ladra – takes place in the heart of the district, at Campo de Santa Clara and surrounding streets. While most of the places around close earlier, nightlife spots in this small lane few steps away from Cais do Sodre station remain open until early morning hours. Like Bairro Alto, this place used to be known for questionable people hanging around and it’s still a little bit like that but Pink Street got a new life in recent years. Rua Nova do Carvalho, also known as “the Pink Street”, is the major nightlife hotspot in Lisbon, even if with a somehow dubious reputation. The choice is enormous and even if you don’t eat meat you can enjoy the Portuguese specialties here.Įverything was so good that I just kept going back to the buffet table to get some more things to try until finally I was literally just rolling, not walking down the street. It’s not the cheapest option (16€ for the buffet over the weekend, if I remember correctly) and it can be really busy but the food is definitely worth it! In a quiet street of Bairro Alto an amazing vegetarian restaurant – Terra – can be found!

They also organize some pretty cool tours – I went to two: Sintra+Cabo da Roca and street art tour and enjoyed both full time!Īn adorable neighborhood located on the hills opposite Castelo Sao Jorge and just above Lisbon Destination Hostel. The wristband you get at the check-in allows you to visit all the hostels anytime and they all are surely worth checking out, even if just for breakfast or a party. Together with two sister hostels in Alfama (with another lovely view) and Sunset (at another train station – Cais do Sodre and with the swimming pool on top) they offer probably the best accommodation you can get in Lisbon. Zdjęcie zamieszczone przez użytkownika kami 22 Mar, 2015 o 7:02 PDTīut Lisbon Destination was more than just the hostel, it’s an institution! Hello from Lisbon! That’s the view from my hostel room – Lisbon Destination Hostel located inside the train station! This is definitely my kind of place! > Check out the latest prices and more details about Lisbon Destination Hostel! (click!)<.
I seriously loved everything about this hostel! Rooms were pretty spacious too and with an amazing view over Rossio Square and Castelo Sao Jorge. There were lots of possibilities to kill the time in the hostel (including the table tennis that I really enjoyed playing) but my favorite must have been just lying on the bean bags and looking up to the sky – yes, there’s a glass ceiling in the hostel! The interior was so beautiful! The common area was huge, bright and with lots of plants that gave the place much cozier look. You should have seen my friend Agata’s face when she realized I wasn’t joking and we really went inside the Rossio train station to find out accommodation! For the railway geek like me, there couldn’t be a better place! Lisbon Destination Hostel is such a special and unique place!įirst of all – it’s located at the train station, really! It took me a while to admit it (as I’m always very careful with such statements) but this was the best hostel I’ve ever stayed in! (I don’t count Cieszyn here as it’s more like a home)
