Lisbon - Bica

 
This simple little quarter, which runs down from the Calçada do Combro/Rua do Loreto to the Tagus, exudes considerably more peacefulness than neighboring Bairro Alto. Only a few cars journey here due to its sloping site and its dense construction. Narrow streets and flights of steps dissect the old quarter, which appears extremely self contained and unspoiled. Here, as in Alfama and Mouraria, there are simple pubs, which serve the inhabitants of Bica, almost exclusively, as meeting places.
