- Praca do Comercio (Terreiro do Paco) - Praça do Comércio, still commonly referred to by its former name of (the) Terreiro do Paço, is a square in downtown Lisbon located next to the Tagus river, in the area being the site of the palace of the kings of Portugal for about two centuries and which today is partially occupied by some government departments. It is one of the largest squares in Europe, measuring around 36,000 m² (180m x 200m). The square is bordered by 79 arches.
It is considered a historic symbol of political power and manifestation of capital in Portugal. This symbology is generally associated with state centralism.
In 1511, King D. Manuel I transferred his residence from Castelo de São Jorge to this location by the river. The Paço da Ribeira, as well as its library of 70,000 volumes, were destroyed by the earthquake of 1755. In the reconstruction, coordinated by Eugénio dos Santos, the square became a fundamental element of the plan of the Marquês de Pombal.

We will tour the key tourist attractions in Lisbon, the capital of Portugal and once the heart of the Portuguese Empire.
Our journey begins in the delightful region of Baixa Pombalina, named after Marquis of Pombal, who rebuilt it after the 1755 earthquake. We will marvel at the monumental Praça do Comércio adjoining the Tagus River, and visit Rossio, Cais do Sodré, and Chiado.
Following this, we move on to the culturally rich Bairro Alto and the quaint neighborhood of Alfama, offering a taste of authentic Lisbon.
Our expedition ends in the symbolic area of Belém, the setting of landmarks commemorating Portugal’s Age of Discovery.
We visit two UNESCO World Heritage Sites from the 16th century—the Jerónimos Monastery, a grand exhibition of Portugal’s Manueline architectural style, and the Belém Tower, a tribute to Portugal’s maritime glory. Lastly, the Padrão dos Descobrimentos, honoring its initiactor, Henrique the Navigator, stands as a reminder of Portugal’s epoch of exploration.
