Principe Real Garden
The França Borges Garden, named in honor of the republican journalist of the same name, is also known as the Príncipe Real Garden.
Inspired by the English romantic model, it features the monumental and centuries-old “Buçaco cedar,” the garden’s ex-libris, standing over 20 meters tall, as well as the surrounding mansions, which are a testament to 19th-century Romantic Lisbon.
Also dating back to this period is the Patriarcal Reservoir, built beneath the garden and now part of EPAL’s Water Museum.
Marquês de Pombal Square
The Marquis of Pombal Square (Portuguese: Praça do Marquês de Pombal) is an important roundabout in the city of Lisbon, Portugal. It is located between the Avenida da Liberdade (Liberty Avenue) and the Eduardo VII Park in the former parish of Coração de Jesus and in the quarter of Santo António.
The square is the radiating point for various important avenues: Liberdade, Duque de Loulé and Fontes Pereira de Melo, as well as the streets Braamcamp and Joaquim António de Aguiar.
Amoreiras Garden
The Jardim das Amoreiras, also known as Marcelino Mesquita Garden, is a peaceful green space in Lisbon created in 1759 with the planting of mulberry trees to support the silk industry.
