A family discovery walk. It's quite hilly, but it's worth it to discover, among other things, the castle and the various squares on the heights of the town.
Graça district of Lisbon
Located on the highest hill in the city, this neighbourhood is like a small village with lots of little things to see and quite a bit of street art. Be careful though, as the streets are often steep and you need good shoes. This route does not return to the starting point.
