One walking route through Alfama — a Claude-drafted route awaiting the editor's walk — plus nearby routes for the same morning.

The cathedral, the two great river terraces, the fado lanes, and the climb back down to the water.

Other walks close to Alfama.

Sorted by distance from the start of alfama: fado and the miradouros. Good for stitching together a longer day.

The downtown rebuilt after the earthquake — the river square, the triumphal arch, and the iron lift.

The oldest bookshop in the world, a roofless Gothic church, and the grid above before it wakes up for the night.

The whole-city view from the ramparts, then down into Lisbon's most mixed quarter for the murals and the food.

Lisbon's Champs-Élysées, the mosaic pavements, and the box-hedge view back down to the river.
