Avenida da Liberdade
It may not seem like a very “secret” or private place, but the truth is that, due to its length, you often feel like you’re surrounded by greenery.
Miradouro da Senhora do Monte
Lisbon has many miradouros, all of them beautiful and with fantastic views, but the Miradouro da Senhora do Monte is undoubtedly in our Top of places where it feels really good to be, especially in the late afternoon, watching the sunset.
Gulbenkian Gardens
We love gardens, the more “secret” and full of greenery the better, to love, to stay in the shade or simply to relax after an afternoon’s work.
The Gulbenkian Gardens fit perfectly into any of these categories, which is why it is also on our list of the best gardens in Lisbon.
Alfama neighborhood
Perhaps it’s because it has very narrow streets and it’s easy to get lost among so many alleys, but, in fact, the neighborhood of Alfama, besides being unique, is one of those places where you feel “hidden” from everyone else.
Lx Factory
The Lx Factory space, in the neighborhood of Alcântara, still continues to win the hearts of our readers, who also make this place their special corner of the city, with even more secret places that you must discover on your next visit.
Jardim do Ultramar
Right next to Torre de Belém is the monument that pays homage to our Overseas War fighters, where you’ll be able to read the name of each one of them on one of the walls of this place, which is also characterized by being very peaceful, as well as the entire Belém area.
Parque das Nações
The Parque das Nações, one of the most modern places in Lisbon is also one of the places where our readers like to take refuge.
The green spaces and proximity to the Tagus River are unquestionably the biggest attractions of this part of the city.
Cold Greenhouse
Estufa Fria could not be missing from this list of “secret” places that our readers love the most.
In a space where green is the dominant color, and fresh air circulates through all our pores, the Estufa Fria is also on our list of places where it feels really good to be.
Bela Vista Park
Most people only know about Parque da Bela Vista, a huge green park to the side of the Rotunda do Relógio, because that’s where the Rock in Rio music festival is held every two years.
So here’s an invitation to get to know Parque da Bela Vista as it is, where the natural amphitheater will leave you cheesed off.
Esplanada da Casa da Cerca
It’s on the other side of the river, in Almada, and is one of the secret places to admire Lisbon in all its splendor.
Known to very few, it’s on the terrace and in the adjacent garden of the Casa da Cerca that you’ll find peace and a lot of harmony, while you can also visit some art exhibitions.
