Located just above Bairro Alto, this elegant district is filled with 19th-century mansions, leafy squares, and independent shops, making it a favourite for both locals and tourists.

At the heart of the area is Jardim do Príncipe Real, a peaceful park with a giant cedar tree providing shade for outdoor cafés and a weekend organic farmers’ market. The neighbourhood is also home to Embaixada, a stunning Moorish-style palace turned into a shopping gallery, featuring Portuguese designers and artisanal brands.

Foodies have plenty to get their chops around here, with a variety of trendy restaurants, wine bars, and rooftop terraces offering fantastic city views. At night, Príncipe Real comes alive with chic cocktail bars and clubs, making it one of Lisbon’s liveliest nightlife spots. For culture and history, visit the Natural History Museum and Botanical Garden, a lush escape from the urban buzz. 

With its laid-back yet sophisticated vibe, Príncipe Real is the perfect place for shopping, dining, and soaking in Lisbon’s creative energy while enjoying a mix of old-world elegance and modern flair.
