Miradouro das Portas do Sol
Alfama and the Tagus from a broad lookout, with Santa Luzia nearby.

Alfama views and tiles telling the stories of the castle and pre-earthquake Lisbon.
Miradouro de Santa Luzia pairs an Alfama river view with tiles, a garden and a pond. Its tile panels show Praça do Comércio before the earthquake and the taking of the castle. Look at those details as well as the skyline, then carry on without blocking the narrow paths or nearby entrances.

Give the tiles a moment as well as the river view. The panels tell two Lisbon stories: Praça do Comércio before the earthquake and the taking of the castle. Then enjoy the garden and continue into Alfama, leaving the narrow paths and residents’ entrances clear.
