The historic centre was constructed over seven hills. On one of these hills, the "Alfama" neighborhood is located; it's one of the few constructions that survived the Lisbon earthquake in 1755. It is the most representative of the typical Portuguese neighborhood. It is full of typical restaurants, "Fado" houses and has the most amazing views of the whole city, ideal for the filming of aerial shots. Here you'll find the city's Cathedral, "Sao Estevao" and "Sao Vicente de Fora" churches. On the top of the hill, you have the "Sao Jorge Castle" with a very well preserved fortress.

The "Baixa" district is just in the centre of the city and has the biggest best known shopping area. It is the privileged area of the city and has a reticulum shape with well-kept XVIII-XIX Century pavements and houses. Here you can find the "Rossio", the "Comercio" Square and the "D.Maria II" National Theatre.

On the other side of the "Baixa", the Barrio Alto is located; an area full of bars, restaurants and clubs with a great evening atmosphere the tourists and locals use to disconnect from routine. Perfect for the crew when filming/film shooting day ends.

On the west side of the city we have numerous palaces, museums and other monuments: like the Belem tower or the "Jeronimos" monastery. Near this area,  the "Monsanto Forest Park" is located, it's one of the biggest urban parks in Europe.

Very close to Lisbon, "Estoril", "Cascais" and "Sintra" are located in a rural zone with natural parks, beaches and big palaces.

In "Estoril" there is a Motogp and Formula 1 circuit where racing championships have been celebrated for many years. Its casino, the "Casino Royale", is the biggest one in Europe and the one that inspired Ian Fleming in the writing of the first 007 saga novel.

"Sintra" city, declared Word Heritage by Unesco, has a high cultural and esthetic value because of its castles, churches and centenary palaces. Among them, we emphasize the "Quinta da Regaleira", the "da Pena" palace, the "Moros" castle and the "Capuchos" Convent. In "Sintra" you can see Gothic, "Mudejar", Baroque and Moorish style monuments. Perfect for "medieval-like" filming/film shooting projects.

Moreover, "Sintra" is surrounded by the "Sintra-Cascais" Natural Park that has an immeasurable landscape value. "Sintra" has a great touristic infrastructure and it is well known for its crafts and gastronomy: interesting factors to consider for your filming/shooting.
