This romantic terrace by the church of Santa Luzia introduces visitors to
Alfama with a sweeping view over its houses, churches, and the Tagus River.
On an outside wall of the church are two tile panels, one of
Comercio Square before
the earthquake, and another showing Christians attacking St. George's Castle in 1147.
The café on the terrace is a good place for a drink before climbing to the castle nearby.
