Jardim do Príncipe Real

A garden break beneath the spreading cypress, between shops and cafés.

In short

Jardim do Príncipe Real is the garden pause between the neighbourhood’s shops and cafés. Look for the spreading cypress often called the Buçaco cedar, then take time to sit rather than passing straight through. Markets have separate editions and schedules: a garden visit does not depend on a stall being there.

Why we send people here

The tree spreading sideways across the garden is worth a second look: the so-called Buçaco cedar is actually a cypress. Make this your sit-down between the shops and cafés, rather than another attraction to march through. If a market is your reason for coming, check that edition separately.
