Wave-patterned paving and a Baixa starting point for the river or the avenue.

Yellow arcades and a riverfront pause on Onur’s city list.
Praça do Comércio is the Baixa riverfront square on Onur’s Lisbon list, with yellow arcades and space to pause by the water. Take in the square before continuing along the river. This is a stop that needs very little organising: give it time rather than turning it into another hurried photograph.
