Secrets in plain view


 All you have to do is open your mind and let yourself be drawn away by the beauty of Lisbon. I went to the Northwest side and explored the north area of Bairro Alto.

Took the Gracia Elevator



which takes you to the S. Pedro Miradouro.








Amazing street art.










This is the "Lost In" esplanada. Only those who get lost, such as I, can ever find it.




They have all kinds of amazing imported tea.



It is a very pleasant place to spend some relaxed time in Lisbon.









Museum of Science




Amália Rodrigues' house that is now a beautiful museum. The inside is absolutely fantastic and majestic. She had an incredible life and her house, in my opinion, functions as a mirror that provides some insight into what her soul was like.



Beyond this door, is a piece of heaven.




Where our portuguese politics should, but do not happen.



I wanted to capture this dog holding the key. After a long walk up hill after getting semi-lost, I met the wonderful owners and got a break.


Largo de Camões. It is a nice place but I had no energy to go look for camera angles.


Last but definitely not least, the Church of St. Roque. It is absolutely gorgeous and you feel so lifted when inside.


I have more pictures hidden somewhere. I will come back here once I find them.
