The proximity to the university Instituto Superior Técnico also makes this an attractive area for both families and students alike. If you are looking for a place with good access to public transport, then Areeiro will appeal to you: four metro stations in the area – Roma, Areeiro, Olaias and Alameda – are handy connections, while buses to Costa da Caparica also run frequently, which is convenient if you plan to escape the city and enjoy the beach.
Areeiro is also a good neighbourhood if you like shopping, as some of the most popular shopping stores can be found on Joao XXI, Avenidas Roma and Guerra Junqueiro.
Green spaces and cultural scenes
The Bela Vista Park in Areeiro, one of Lisbon’s largest open areas, is a great place to relax and grab a coffee in the sun. You can also take nice walks in the park or take advantage of the open air for a jog. Bela Vista, meaning ‘beautiful view’, is also occasionally used for venues for concerts, playing host in the past to acts such as The Rolling Stones, Madonna, Queen, Sting, Amy Winehouse and Guns N’ Roses.
The Maria Matos Teatro Municipal is another place of interest in the area. More than just a theatre, it is one of Lisbon’s main culture and activity centres where you can find theatre, dance performances and concerts.
