Shopping and other activities in Lisbon (terça-feira)

'Feira da Ladra' on Tuesday (terça-feira)

Here you can find everything you always wanted

Old 'azulejos' on sale and a house covered with them

Back at the hotel and up at Igreja do Carmo

 Lisboa, arrasada pelo tremor de terra de 1755, foi reconstruída pelo Marquês de Pombal segundo um modelo de urbanismo racionalista do século das Luzes. É hoje a mais cosmopolita metrópole portuguesa.

Devastated by the earthquake in 1755, Lisbon was rebuilt by the Marquis of Pombal following a model of racionalist urbanism from the Age of Enlightenment. Today Lisbon is the most cosmopolitan Portuguese metropolis.

Arriving at Costa da Caparica

The season for the beach train is over ...

... but some still taste the Ocean

On the way back we take the ferry from Cacilhas

Lisbon in sight

Language practice and parking practice
