R AAugust 17, 2014A must-see for all Lisbon visitors. Take the tramway here to go to Belém. Take the lively Rua Augusta by passing through the Arc of Triumph. You can go up the arc for a wonderful view.Upvoted 1 week ago
Jean-Xtophe OrdonneauDecember 27, 2014In southeastern current of this square, there is a very nice museum about the history of the city. Very interesting, good sound system and a better understanding of the town through its past.
Gabi BulumacNovember 10, 2014Biggest open space in downtown Lisbon !! The square is surrounded with shops and bars ,definitely worth a visit.It has a cool Beer Museum and a tourist information facility.Upvoted 2 weeks ago
Mircea ScarlatescuSeptember 12, 2013Beer museum, wine tasting, nice restaurants. The main square in Lisbin you can get the yellow trams from here, boats on the river and so on...
Stacy Bo BacyMay 15, 2019On June 3, 1515, someone had the dumb idea to have an elephant and rhino fight in this plaza. The elephant immediately fled, trampling people on its way. I think of that story every time I’m here.
Catarina MatosApril 26, 2017Lovely view in every angle. This is a place full of History. Walk to Cais do Sodré and when you get there, grab a bite at Sol e Pesca.
- Ed WoodcockMay 10, 2017Beautiful big square, but beware the shady men on it trying to offer 'hash' and 'cocaine' (or sunglasses)
Ann Marie EllisonNovember 26, 2016Beautiful view and I add the picture where you can see the bridge and Christ the king! Just wow view amazing !!
Emre ErsahinOctober 8, 2017This is the area of Lisbon that says “Good to see you!” Walk around the shops in small streets and enjoy old town.
NmSeptember 20, 2021One of the most beautiful squares in Europe .. A must to visit while in Lisbon !!

Inês PintoDecember 4, 2014Lovely place for a walk and to enjoy a good meal with a view. Plenty of different restaurants and close to shops downtown.
Monica CullenSeptember 21, 2019Beautiful open space, the arch is so pretty to see at night! Often crowded when the cruise ships are in town.
Angelo DiasAugust 16, 2013Take the elevator in the main arc wonderful view to all Lisbon downtown! Until 18th August a multimedia show is showed at 21.30 22.30 and 23.30.
The top of the Monumental Arch represents Glory crowning Genius and Valour. Beneath them are Viriatus, Vasco da Gama, the Marquis of Pombal and Nuno Álvares Pereira.
Cenk KiralJanuary 1, 2015Nice place....but be aware of the aftermath of new year celebrations, which is a nightmare to return as there is literally no taxi around. Either leave early or stay more until the crowd disperse
Hristina PopovaAugust 3, 2013It is a nice place, quite big I would say. I lik it very much but I feel it quite empty - probably is it mant to gather many people. I wouldn't go there on the afternoon of a hot summer day. ENJOY!!!
David ChungJanuary 12, 2017A good place to hang around, provides great view on Statue of King José I and also the Rua Augusta Arch.
Carmel HanrahanSeptember 6, 2015Looking for somewhere to eat in this area. You won't go wrong at nosolo Italia. Chocolate sauce to die for
Great place to walk around and lots of restaurants around! Fun fact: it's one of the biggest squares in Europe (280x280m).
Daisarie DelayOctober 16, 2016Just breathtaking😱😱😍😍. You can watch the sunset on the beach right across this square. Ahhmazing!
Amit GaharwarFebruary 25, 2018People viewing and relax on the beach which is right in front. Stroll, sit, relax and soak in the sun!!!
EpicuriousAugust 25, 2010For an appetizer, try the pineapple-&-goat-cheese ravioli drizzled with a cherry-cardamom cream. For a main course, opt for lamb served with Algarvian orange chutney and a mix of field greens.- Daniël van der WindenAugust 9, 2014Nice views and buildings. Walk towards the water, then to the right for a tiny beach. Get your feet wet. It's nice.
Rafael MarinDecember 26, 2016Beautiful place with a breahless view of the sea. It's a nice place to start a tour around Lisbon.
Ted GoochApril 16, 2018Impressive! Very dramatic archway with busy little cafes and restaurants around the square
Jan SapperAugust 18, 2015The tourist trap caffees are reasonably priced. At night you'll be offered all kinds of drugs next to the fountain.- One of the most beautiful city squares in the world. The biggest in old Europe. Besides great views day & night - lovely bars, restaurants, shops, nightlife
Michael HoldsworthJuly 4, 2015On 1 February 1908, the square was the scene of the assassination of Carlos I, the penultimate King of Portugal. So beautiful, but with a turbulent history!
Zeynep Ozturk OzyerMay 27, 2018Welcome to the Lisbon! First visit the Story Museum and then browse around the little shops and cafes.
Marc EscanuelasAugust 9, 2016Lisbon's traditional "front door", where visiting dignitaries would disembark with great pomp and circumstance.- The great "gate to the city"! Imagine descending from a boat on the Tagus and stepping up that place towards the big arc to enter the city.
- At the Centre stands a statue of King José I. Beneath him Fame leads an Elephant and Triumph leads a Horse, which trample on conquered Africa and Asia. In the front Medallion is the Marquis de Pombal.
In May 2011 you have 3 coffees and two restaurants. All the coffees have outside tables. The two restaurants are pretty Nice and not so expensive. Mainly is modern portuguese food.
