La Baixa: Rua Augusta
The most important street of downtown Lisbon, full of life at almost any time of day and the main artery linking the Praca do Comercio with Praça da Figueira. It's full of shops and restaurants, but the cuisine is too oriented to tourists, with terraces offering paellas (of Paellador), little pizzas and local cuisine. Halfway between the Alfama and Alto districts is the starting point to learn about this amazing city.
