Intendente square is one of most beautiful square in Lisbon. This area used to be red light district of Lisbon, so, when you go out this square, you still feel that environment. But I love the square and it is just next to the restaurant Ramiro, the famous seafood restaurant. In the square, you also have "a vida portuguesa", the famous Portuguese souvenir shop.
