Lisbon 1100, Studio flat for rent

Mouraria-Lisbon is where you will be: Is less than 500m away from the very center of Lisbon. You can go walking pretty much to every tourist point of the city. To step foot in Mouraria for the first time is to experience a subtle but immediate shift; a heightening of perception. This once-forgotten district is an oasis of local life, which has become a rarity in Lisbon's center. Here, the labyrinthine streets are teeming with history, evolving for all to see. For visitors, Mouraria offers the chance to see the Portuguese capital in its natural state; a blur of young Ronaldos weaving through elderly residents, orange trees, soundtracked by the calls of neighbors from windowsills. This vibrancy means that, for many Lisboetas, Mouraria has become a microcosm for the struggle that a growing number of residents face - to save the beating heart of their city from rising rents, commodification, and gentrification. Sprawling across the foothills of the iconic Castelo de São Jorge, Mouraria has a rich history of community and solidarity, evident today in the form of associações (co-operatives) and a thriving independent arts scene.
