Alfama is the oldest district of Lisbon; with cobble-stone streets, old churches, peaceful squares, and the best views over the city there are sufficient reasons to walk up to Alfama.
There are several viewpoints from Alfama that should not be missed. From Miradouro da Graça, you have Lisbon at your feet, Castelo São Jorge on your left and Graça church behind you. This is a very attractive place to spend some time: in the late afternoon, the sun will be shining right into your eyes. Walking down towards the Tago river, you will reach Miradouro Santa Luzia, which gives the best view over the Alfama district itself. From here, you get a confirmation of what you thought while walking up the steep streets and alleys: they all twist and turn, making Alfama look a little chaotic from above.
