Miradouro de São Pedro de Alcântara
A two-level garden looking across to the castle and Baixa.
At the edge of Bairro Alto, it is an evening meeting point before dinner. The Elevador da Glória has been out of service since the September 2025 accident; check Carris notices. Meanwhile, walk up Calçada da Glória or come via Chiado.
Our Bairro Alto guide covers what else is around. About 3 minutes' walk away is Igreja de São Roque. It is part of the Lisbon in 3 days itinerary. If you do Cacilhas and Cristo Rei, across the Tagus, you can add this on your way back into Lisbon. By metro, get off at Restauradores (about 230 m on foot).
