Rua dos Douradores, Lisbon - 2

The terra-cotta roofs, the greenery, and the iron works have the traditional elements etched in every corners of the city.

Rua dos Douradores is a real street, just four blocks long, not far from the center of Lisbon, close to two large and impressive campos, the Praça Dom Pedro IV and the Praça do Comércio, and a short distance from the Tagus River. Also just moments away is the Elevador de Santa Justa, a 100-foot-tall lift built at the turn of the twentieth century that serves no function but rising to a restaurant with a panorama of the city and its harbor.
