This is the student party area of Lisbon, well its mainly a few place being loud and lots of small restaurants. moreover this area is full of streets going up and down, being very narrow, with its cobblestone streets and lots of graffiti. oh yes, the smell. its so moisterous here, undoubtedly of bad maintenance. but its a wonderful area to walk around and to stay as its location is really central towards the trainstation (Rossio), the riverfront and the shopping areas of Chiado and Baixa
