🇵🇹 Charming Neighbourhood around São Jorge Castle

The neighbourhood surrounding São Jorge Castle, often referred to as the ‘Castelo district’ or simply the ‘Castelo’, is one of the most picturesque and historically rich areas in Lisbon. Situated on one of the city’s seven hills, this neighbourhood offers a mix of ancient history, stunning views, and a charming atmosphere. The Castelo district blends seamlessly with Alfama, the oldest neighbourhood in Lisbon. The narrow, winding streets and alleys of Alfama are an extension of the historical charm that surrounds the castle. Just like in Alfama, the streets around São Jorge Castle are filled with Fado music, with numerous small bars and restaurants offering live performances. The area around the castle also features some impressive street art, with murals and graffiti that reflect the creativity of Lisbon’s artists. #travellerswonderland #100waysoftravel
