Calçada da Bica Grande

Highlight • Structure

A beautiful staircase with a central railing in the Bairro Alto district, one of the most beautiful in Lisbon. It leads from the Tagus River up a very steep hill and through a charming and picturesque neighborhood, or vice versa.
If that's too strenuous, the Elevador da Bica funicular runs in the neighborhood. The Elevador da Bica in Lisbon runs along Rua da Bica de Duarte Belcio, between Rua de São Paulo and Largo do Calhariz in the upper town (Bairro Alto).

View of the Tagus River, 25 de Abril Bridge, and Sanctuary of Christ the King

Highlight • Viewpoint

It's best to walk along here in the evening, because the many halls don't bother you, and you only see what you want to see.

Bica Lift

Highlight • Monument

This charming elevator takes us from the Cais de Sodre neighborhood to Bairro Alto, at the top of the hill. It is often called Elevador da Bica and is not only one of the most famous places in Lisbon, but also a valuable means of transportation. Its 200-meter route between Largo do Calhariz and Rua de São Paulo is considered the most picturesque of all the elevators in Lisbon.

Highlight • Monument

The funicular railway runs through Rua da Bica de Duarte Belcio and connects Rua de São Paulo with Largo do Calhariz, located in the Upper Town.

Right in the old town. At Largo do Calhariz, at the top end of the track, there are almost every evening celebrating on the steps in front of the small pubs.
