16-September-2008 16:15:18 - Alfama General view of the Alfama General view of the Alfama Alfama pron. IPA: aÉ«'fÉ?mÉ? is the oldest district of Lisbon, spreading on the slope between the Castle of Lisbon and the Tejo river. Its name comes from the Arabic Al-hamma, meaning fountains or baths. It contains many important historical attractions, with many Fado bars and restaurants. During the times of Moorish domination, Alfama constituted the whole of the city, which later spread to the West Baixa neighbourhood. Alfama became inhabited by the fishermen and the poor, and its condition as the neighbourhood of the poor continues to this day. The great 1755 Lisbon Earthquake did not destroy the Alfama, which has remained a picturesque labyrinth of narrow streets and small squares. Lately the neighbourhood has been invigorated with the renovation of the old houses and new restaurants where Fado - Portuguese typical melancholy music - can be enjoyed.

Overlooking the Alfama is the mediaeval Castle of São Jorge, royal residence until the early 16th century and now offering the best views of the city. In the slopes of Alfama there are other terraces miradouros from which to see the city, like the Miradouro de Santa Luzia, near the church of the same name and over remnants of the Moorish city walls, and the Miradouro das Portas do Sol Gates of the Sun. Near Miradouro of Santa Luzia is located the Museum of Decorative Arts Museu de Artes Decorativas, a 17th century mansion with magnificent interiors. Among the churches of the Alfama are Lisbon Cathedral 12th-14th centuries, the oldest of the city and located to the West of the neighbourhood, the Convent of the Grace Convento da Graça, 18th century, near the Castle, the mannerist Monastery of São Vicente de Fora late 16th-18th century, where the Kings of the House of Braganza are buried, and the baroque Church of Santa Engrácia 17th century, now converted into a National Pantheon for important Portuguese personalities.
