Parque Eduardo VII

Praças e Jardins / Castilho

Located right in the heart of Lisbon, at the top of Avenida da Liberdade, the Eduardo VII park is one of Lisbon's favourite places to go for a walk. Flanked by trees that surround the two large pavements in Portuguese pavement and a huge lawn designed by the architect Keil do Amaral in 1945, this park is also the scene of major events throughout the year, such as the Feira do Livro (Book Fair), or Winter Wonderland.

At the top of the park we find a magnificent viewpoint, with a breathtaking view opening onto some of the most iconic elements of the city: the gardens of the park, the imposing statue of Marquês de Pombal and the valley of Avenida da Liberdade, culminating with the calm waters of the Tejo River on the horizon.

Castilho

Located in a central and cosmopolitan area of Lisbon, Rua Castilho prolongs the elegance and prestige of the neighbouring Avenida da Liberdade. This artery, which stretches from Rua do Salitre to Rua Marquês de Fronteira, is a very sought after location by large companies, banks and 5-star hotels, such as the Ritz Four Seasons, the InterContinental and the Altis Grande Hotel, which was established here in 1973.
