Renovar a Mouraria is a non-profit public benefit organization created to revitalize the Mouraria neighborhood, where more than 50 nationalities coexist, where the fado was born, and where countless Portuguese traditions still manifest themselves in everyday life...

This place is one of my favourite secret spots in Lisbon. It is famous for its stunning formal gardens and 17th and 18th century decorative tiles with some of the country's finest, depicting hunting, battles, and religious scenes, statuary and fountains. So let's keep it as a secret between us.

One of my favourite things to do on my travels is finding a good bookshop. Ler Devagar (meaning ' read slowly' in English) did not disappoint. Built inside an old printing factory you can find this bookshop in the trendy LX factory in Alcântara. Books fill the walls from floor to ceiling and in the middle of the shop is a large flying bicycle. Need I say more.

A small letterpress shop/studio in the Bairro Alto district. Great place to pick up a souvenir for your type-geek, designer friends.

Lovely little cafe with beautiful decor. Excellent pastries and friendly atmosphere.
