History
Lisbon’s central districts show layers of history from medieval Moorish street plans to the Pombaline reconstruction after the 1755 earthquake, which shaped the Baixa grid and early anti-seismic design.
Conservation
High foot traffic erodes historic cobbles and stresses neighborhoods; stick to marked public areas, support local businesses, and carry out waste to reduce impact.
