• The Pink Street - Rua Nova do Carvalho is the official name of Lisbon’s Pink Street, located in the now trendy neighborhood of Cais do Sodre. This area was once Lisbon’s Red-Light District.

Lisbon, being a significant port city, attracted many sailors who came to gamble, drink, and seek pleasure.

Rua Nova do Carvalho was the hotspot, filled with gambling dens, brothels, and shady bars named after other port cities.

It wasn’t just sailors who frequented the area; it was also a gathering place for local criminals, streetwalkers, and prostitutes. Bet you didn’t know this quirky street had such a shady past!
