Hi!
Thank you for your interest in my home in Lisbon.
My flat is a cozy and comfortable place, with an area of 40 m2, ideal for 3 people (4 maximum). It’s fully equipped and has many amenities. The view over downtown and city castle is unique in Lisbon.
The loft is located in a place called Largo do Carmo, which was center stage for one of the most important and inspiring chapters in recent portuguese history: The Carnation Revolution (Revolução dos Cravos), also referred to as the 25 de Abril, was a left-leaning military coup started on April 25, 1974, in Lisbon that effectively changed the Portuguese regime from an authoritarian dictatorship to a democracy.
It is located in a central district of Lisbon, the District of Sacramento, located in Chiado.
Chiado is also a traditional but cosmopolitan shopping area that mixes old and modern commercial establishments, specially concentrated in Carmo and Rua Garrett. Locals as well as tourists visit Chiado to buy books, garments, pottery, second-hand or designer products, as well as to have a cup of coffee or taste the exquisite national pastries.
The most famous café in Chiado is “A Brasileira” (The Brazilian), famous for having had poet Fernando Pessoa among its customers, as well as many other writers and artists that used to meet there. Chiado is also an important cultural area, with several museums, Art galleries and theaters.
Several buildings in Chiado were destroyed in a terrible fire in 1988, an event that deeply shocked the country. Thanks to a renovation project that lasted more than 10 years, coordinated by celebrated architect Siza Vieira, the affected area is now recovered.
It would be my pleasure to have you there. Best regards, Jorge Cruz
