Ajuda's National Palace
The Palace was the official residence of the Portuguese royal family from 1861 until the end of the monarchy in 1910. It features authentic interiors and important art collections.
Alcântara and Ajuda
Green spaces, close to the river, a neighbourhood feel, culture and creativity. If this is your kind of habitat, then Alcântara is right up your street. On the site of former factories, we now find trendy restaurants, cafés and bars, including the famous Lx Factory complex. Here, like elsewhere in the area, there are studios, ateliers, shops and start-ups. Alcântara is as much a residential area as it is a place for leisure and work. There’s a wide range of public transport, with buses to the city centre, trams that extend to beyond Belém and the train to Cascais, making it possible to live in Lisbon without a car.
Further uphill, we come to Ajuda, a neighbourhood that has recently been rejuvenated without losing its local DNA. Those who already live there say that there's no better view than the one here, with the Tagus below and the 25 de Abril Bridge glinting in the sun. Well served in terms of commerce, Ajuda has local schools and hospitals, not to mention Lisbon’s largest green space, Monsanto Park, which is perfect for a walk or showing children what nature has to offer. There are also historical buildings, such as the Igreja da Memória church (also known as the Igreja de Nossa Senhora do Livramento e de São José), initially constructed in 1760. Other important landmarks include the Palácio Nacional da Ajuda, the baroque Igreja da Boa-Hora church and the Ajuda Botanical Garden, created and planted by order of the Marquis of Pombal in 1768.
And what are the houses like?
Both new and renovated buildings in these neighbourhoods often have excellent outdoor areas, balconies, terraces and garage spaces, some with a swimming pool.
