São Vicente is an area of old houses, with residents who were born and raised in the neighborhood, but also with some new young inhabitants seeking the city center. It is a neighborhood that is almost entirely on a hill, thus creating elevated points with privileged views over the historical area of the city and the Tagus River. Precisely here, by the river, we find one of the most pleasant areas of Lisbon, Cais da Pedra, where some of the trendiest restaurants in the city are located, frequented by a cultured and sophisticated crowd, whether by day or by night. Here everything exudes tranquility and well-being.
In this parish, there are some of the most typical areas of the city, such as Sapadores, São Vicente de Fora, and Graça, one of the most beautiful and oldest neighborhoods of the capital. With a curious mixture of cosmopolitanism and rurality, the area is known and sought after for its viewpoints, where one can enjoy the most beautiful views of the city. It is also one of the city's tourist and historical spots, with varied street commerce.
