Alfama walking tour in the old section is one of your great experiences in coming to Lisbon. Come late afternoon, early evening when folks are out socializing. The best scenery is around the Castle of St. Jorge -- a ruin on top of the hill with incredible views. The Alfama is Lisbon's ancient heart: a maze of narrow lanes, azulejo-tiled houses, and neighborhood taverns where fado music spills into the streets.
