Cosmopolitan bars and restaurants by the river
The dock area below 25 de Abril Bridge along the river in Alcantara between
Baixa and Belem
is one of the city's most pleasant places for a drink in late
afternoon and with a lively atmosphere at night.
Former warehouses overlooking an attractive yachting marina have
been transformed into a multitude of cosmopolitan bars, restaurants, and clubs for all tastes.
Those who enjoy walking can also set off from here to the monuments in Belem, through the green lawns along the river
(about a 20-minute walk).
