It's only a few weeks ago I came home fom my trip to Portugal and the Azores. Most of our time was spent on the islands. But because it was from Lisbon we had our flight to and from the Azores, we chose to stay here for two days before our flight back to Norway. We devided those two days between two of the districts in Lisbon. One day was spent in Belem and one in Bairro Alto.
Bairro Alto is one of the oldest districts, located in the center of the city. We were here during the day, to walk in the narrow and steep streets. There are lots of restaurants, cafes, shops etc. so it's easy to have a break for food and drinks. Because we spent the whole day until the night was aproaching, we did get an idea of this area having lots of nightlife too. People filled the streets. The music from the bars were loud and heard from every street we walked along.
What we really enjoyed was the streets with amazing architecture. There are lots of beautiful facades with details and designs that we just kept admirng. Evidence of people living here was just as facinating. It was easy to spot where people live because of the laundry hanging outside the flats.
All these photos was taken in Bairro Alto. I have chosen black & white to make sure colors won't disturb noticing the details.
