This tour delves into Lisbon’s fascination with Europe, particularly France, during the late 19th century. The inauguration of a grand train station in Downtown, providing a direct link to Paris, symbolized progress. Equally significant was the desire to emulate the culture, elegance, and cosmopolitan allure of the City of Light in Lisbon.

This aspiration for what was termed Civilization translated, in practical terms, into the creation of a French Boulevard replica in the heart of the Portuguese capital. This involved constructing a series of grand buildings adorned with greenery, public art, and street furniture. Today, the Liberty Avenue area boasts the highest concentration of upscale shops, luxury hotels, and major corporate offices. However, many locals have never fully embraced this transplanted French urban landscape, and even now, the city’s residents maintain a complex relationship with its main avenue.
