Portugal - Lisbon - Apartment balconies in old moorish Alfama district

Old apartment and iron balcony architecture in Lisbon's old Arabic Alfama district. Murals of classical Portuguese figures adorn the plaster walls next to crumbling windows and balconies which have the look of vintage from a former era in Lisbon's capital. Alfama is the oldest district of Lisbon, spreading on the slope between the Castle of Lisbon and the Tejo river. Its name comes from the Arabic Al-hamma, meaning fountains or baths. It contains many important historical attractions, with many Fado bars and restaurants.
