ROSSIO
Rossio has been a traditional meeting point for the people of Lisbon dating back to the 18th century. Some of the cafés and shops in the square, such as the Café Nicola, were frequented by famous poets such as Manuel Maria Barbosa du Bocage. Other traditional shops include the Pastelaria Suíça and the Ginjinha, where the traditional Portuguese liqueur (Ginjinha) can be tasted.

BAIXA (DOWNTOWN)
Baixa is an elegant district that contains the grid of streets north of the famous Praça do Comércio, between Cais do Sodré, and the Alfama district beneath the São Jorge Castle. It then extends northwards towards the Rossio and Figueira squares, and one of the most important avenues in Lisbon, the 1100m long Avenida da Liberdade.

CHIADO
This vibrant and cosmopolitan area is the shopping hub of downtown Lisbon hosting a variety of charming old bookshops, local and major international fashion brand outlets, restaurants, and cafés. The Café Brasileira, one of the oldest café´s in the city, can be found here.
