Graça / Mouraria
Lived-in, layered, soulful

Graça / Mouraria

The lived-in hill where fado was born, full of steep lanes, terraces and tascas.

Climbing the hill north of the castle, Graça and Mouraria are the parts of Lisbon that never tidied themselves up for visitors, and are better for it. Mouraria is where fado was born and where dozens of nationalities now share the same steep lanes, market stalls and tiny tascas. Graça above it offers wide terraces and miradouros where locals drink at sunset rather than queue for photographs. This is the city at its most lived-in: laundry overhead, a guitar somewhere, the smell of grilled fish.
