Location Information

Situated in one of the 7 hills of Lisbon, Bairro Alto is a step away from the glamorous “Chiado” quarter, the Principe Real and Botanic Gardens.

Bairro Alto began its history as an expansion of the XVI cent (the first lot division of Vila Nova de Andrade - Bairro Alto in 1513, in the XVI century) of the discoveries city, programmed with its base in a modern urban planning, where the poplars and the aristocrats installed themselves side by side. Bairro Alto has been identified as a typical animation area since the XIX century. With a great liaison with the literary tradition, it attracted the press, and the bohemian life. It also reactivated new meeting places and promoted a new a cultural lifestyle that persists up to now.
A big attraction to all who want to be distracted, and a very animated place with local life, it is the center of most of Lisbon's agitated nocturne life with typical restaurants, bars, fados houses, bookshops, theaters, some of the most creative ateliers, fashion and design stores. With belvedere's, turned to the beautiful landscapes of Lisbon city, Bairro Alto takes part today of the historic and typical areas (with perpendicular and straight streets and flower adorned windows) much loved by the Lisbon people.
We have in Bairro Alto some Portuguese baroque monuments with an exuberant decoration, many gold worked ornaments and worked glazed tiles, decorative painting, linked to a big creativity and innovation, and notable examples of the Portuguese art and the religious and civil architecture.
