  • Discover Lisbon with Our Guide!
    The 7th Conference of European Survey Research Association welcomes you to the fashionable city of Lisbon! Lisbon, the most westerly capital in mainland Europe, is one of the few cities in the world to offer a unique natural landscape. It’s for sure one of the most impressively located, with a series of hills facing the Tejo estuary, one of the sunniest and probably one of the least expensive cities to discover. Being a city built on hills, from the various belvederes, installed in the highest points, can enjoy breathtaking views. We highlight the castle of S. Jorge, where we reach the cacilheiros in their crossing to the south bank, the 25th April bridge, Rossio, Carmo convent, Bairro Alto, Eduardo VII park, among other points of the city. Alongside the old city, with a very rich heritage, Lisbon is also a modern city that has been renewed in new cultural and leisure proposals. In this document you can find out more about the places you cannot miss in this city – excursions, restaurants and bars, among others.

  • Arts and Culture
    HISP-P290 Global Portuguese: Arts and Culture (3cr.) GEN ED AH & WC + CASE GCC & CASE A&H May 6-25, 2019 Lisbon, Portugal Professor Estela Vieira [[email protected], mobile: +1-203-434-1424] Department of Spanish and Portuguese Course objectives Portuguese is spoken across several continents and is the sixth most spoken language in the world. This course introduces students to one of the first globalized cultures and languages, the Portuguese-speaking world. Based in the second-oldest capital city in Europe, Lisbon, Portugal, we will learn about this global cultural network by hands-on studying of its arts and culture. Lisbon is a cosmopolitan city that has experienced waves of globalization throughout its long history. The course explores the ways and forms with which the Portuguese have historically forged global connections to different parts of the world: Asia, Brazil, and Africa. Thus, while learning about one of Europe’s most fascinating capital cities, students will gain a historical perspective into processes of globalization and a broad understanding of the cultural links between the regions that make up the Portuguese-speaking or Lusophone world. We will begin with an overview of Portuguese expansion in the early modern period and focus on connections between Asia and Portugal. Then we turn to the influence the colonization of Brazil has had on Portugal concentrating on the 18th and 19th centuries. Lastly, we focus on the former Portuguese- speaking African colonies, their struggle for independence, and continued relations to Portugal in the 20th century. Lectures will provide historical, socio-political, and cultural context, and our discussions will be devoted to literary/fictional, cultural, and historical texts, films, paintings, and architecture.

  • Chiado Guide
    CHIADO (Shopping/ World's oldest bookshop “Bertrand”/ Historic “Cafe a Brasileira” / Restaurants / Museums / Esplanada’s) CHIADO is an elegant metropolis of shops, cafes, book stores, restaurants, museums and bars. Most of the buildings in the area date back to the 1700s but this neighbourhood will transport you back to the romantic times of the "Belle Epoque". When in the 19th and early 20th century Fernando Pessoa (Portuguese Hemingway of sorts) was penning some of his greatest poetry at the now historic art deco style cafe, BRASILEIRA. ESSENTIALS OF CHIADO: 1. RUA DO CARMO: A lot has changed but the essence and charm of the B elle Epoque remains in Chiado. Enter Rua do Carmo from its lowest end as you leave Rossio Square and let yourself be transported. Go and admire the P ortuguese Jewelry (Filigree) at J oalharia do Carmo, window shop the finely crafted gloves at Luvaria Ulisses , then see if you can find the secret elevator at the back of a small, unmarked cork shop to enter the Terraces of Chiado . A stop at the artisanal gelato shop, S antini is always a good idea too. Browse the artistic works laid out by their makers on picnic rugs to sell and enjoy the sounds of the resident buskers. WHERE: Rua do Carmo, Chiado WHEN: Public street, all hours HOW: 5 minute walk from WLFT 2. JOALHARIA DO CARMO: T he rare beauty of these two shop entrances (Joalharia do Carmo + Luvaria Ulisses) and their iconic Art Nouveau façades should not be overlooked, a meander around their interiors also gives an insight into Portuguese history and culture.

  • Discovering Lisbon
    Discovering Lisbon ABOUT Photo: Turismo de Portugal Discovering Lisbon Lisbon is a city that makes you want to go exploring, to discover whatever might appear in every neighbourhood, on every street. It’s a safe and friendly city, relatively small but with so much to see. It’s an ideal place to spend a few days or as a starting point for touring the country. It’s old. It’s modern. It is, without doubt, always surprising. You can choose a topic or a theme to explore it. The range is wide: Roman Lisbon, Manueline, Baroque or Romantic Lisbon, literary Lisbon, the Lisbon of Bohemian nightlife, the city of Fado. And there are also very different ways of exploring: by foot, by tram, by segway, by hop-on-hop-off bus, in a tuk tuk, seen from the river on a boat trip or from the other side, after crossing the Tagus on a cacilheiro ferry... the suggestions are endless. However, there are some essential sites that simply cannot be missed, and are always on the list. Like the historic Alfama and Castelo districts, with one of the most fabulous views over the city and the river. You must go from downtown towards Belém, the neighbourhood of the Discoveries, with the Belém Tower and the Jerónimos Monastery, both World Heritage. But also with the original Coach Museum and the modern Belém Cultural Centre. Oh, and don’t forget to taste the delicious pastéis de nata (custard tarts)! Leave Chiado and Bairro Alto for the late afternoon and the evening. These are guaranteed nightlife spots, as is Cais do Sodré, nearer the river.

  • Buildings and Urban Form: Investigating Buildings with a Positive Urban Transformation Dimension
    URBAN TRANSFORMATION: CONTROVERSIES, CONTRASTS and CHALLENGES BUILDINGS AND URBAN FORM: INVESTIGATING BUILDINGS WITH A POSITIVE URBAN TRANSFORMATION DIMENSION CÁTIA SANTANA; MADALENA CUNHA MATOS Address: Research Centre for Architecture, Urban Planning and Design (CIAUD)-Faculdade de Arquitectura – Universidade Técnica de Lisboa Polo Universitário do Alto da Ajuda – Rua Sá Nogueira PT-1349-055 LISBOA; Portugal e-mail: [email protected]; [email protected] ABSTRACT The construction of a building can, based on its project strategy, transform and improve the liveability and use patterns of the city fabric. Certain buildings are remarkable due to their relationship with urban space, leading to articulation spaces – patios, passageways, pathways – shaped by the building and adapted to the urban fabric. These buildings establish continuity with the surrounding area allowing for the construction of places in the city. However, the study of the city based on morphology and the interpretation of buildings according to typology has hindered the understanding of spaces generated by situations that occur in the frontier between architecture and urban design. The objective of this article is to identify and interpret project strategies that improve the qualities of urban space. The intention is to describe the spaces generated by the construction of the buildings that modify the form of the city introducing urban qualities in a pre- existing fabric. The qualities of the “path” and of the spaces of “permanence” generated by these interventions will be characterised – meaning the spatial situations generated by the buildings that create movement and spatial situations that define stable spaces. Five buildings located in Lisbon will be the case studies.

If you've already done any of our other walks, you'll know how it works but if not, I'll tell you now. As you've probably already noticed, each of these sections of the walk that you've downloaded on to your machine has a name - this first one is ‘The Castle and the Alfama’. Just consider each of these walks as individual tracks on an 'album' which is the complete tour of Lisbon. You'll hear directions about where to go next at the end of each section but the route and the stopping points are also marked on your map, which is on page four of this Printed Guide. When you get to a stopping point find somewhere to stand or sit which is out of the way of people and traffic and then play the relevant section of the walk. The map has been especially produced to help you find your way while you're listening to the audio guide, which means that it's not drawn exactly to scale. Top tip: when you print out this Printed Guide or, at least, the map, set your printer to high quality or fine print so that the map is as clear as possible and easy to read.
