Estrela's Garden
Estrela's Garden was built in the style of English gardens, with a romantic inspiration. It covers 4.6 hectares and is open to the public every day.
Properties dating back to the 18th century, built with high ceilings for noble and aristocratic families. This is what most apartments in Estrela are like. Located in a quiet part of Lisbon, living here means having embassies and consulates as neighbours, as well as being close to both the city centre and one of its main exits: the 25 de Abril Bridge. And let's not forget the magnificent Estrela Basilica and the wonderful and exotic garden opposite, whose doors are always open to residents and visitors alike.
Next door is Lapa, which has the same peaceful atmosphere as Estrela. A mainly residential neighbourhood, being on top of one of Lisbon’s seven hills means many properties, especially on the higher floors, overlook the Tagus, the 25 de Abril Bridge and the enormous Cristo Rei statue. Despite being near busy areas, the neighbourhood is quiet. If you fancy a drink, Santos is a stone’s throw away, the only drawback being the uphill walk home. This area borders Lapa but offers a completely different vibe. During the day, Santos is calm, while the nights are busier, given the wide range of restaurants, bars and cafés that call it home. Considered to be a neighbourhood of designers and artists, it’s no surprise that it has such a creative, peculiar and lively aura.
In Estrela and Lapa, the balconies and terraces of the buildings enjoy excellent views of the Tagus, while some properties have outdoor areas, swimming pools and parking. In Santos, a neighbourhood popular with younger people, all the apartments have parking spaces in the buildings themselves.

This vast church, topped by a dome, stands high on a hill in the western part of the city, is a Catholic temple and former convent of Carmelite nuns.
The Palace of Necessidades is a former convent that has been classified as Property of Public Interest since 1983. The palace is currently the headquarters of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
In Tapada das Necessidades there are several rare trees that came from different countries. It is home to one of the largest collections of cacti in the world!
