Neighbourhoods
Benfica
Parish in north-west Lisbon, with a 1971 municipal market and Parque Silva Porto, opened as a public garden.
Mercado de Benfica, from 1971, was built on the grounds of Quinta da Casquilha to replace the old street market. Parque Silva Porto grew from a grove planted in 1880; the woodland was handed to the city in 1910 to become a public garden.
