My Story Hotels,
Breathe in the city’s history through its walls:
The downtown area, better known as Baixa Pombalina, was severely destroyed by the earthquake of 1 November 1755 and shortly after was rationally rebuilt thanks to the impetus of the Marquis of Pombal.
Even today, we can appreciate the alignment of the streets that contrast with the disorder of medieval Lisbon that resisted that sway, and have the privilege of staying in one of the My Story hotels located in the renovated elegant buildings constructed with the Pombaline cage (an anti-seismic construction system), an innovative 18th-century engineering technique.
Don’t miss the opportunity to stroll through its elegant and bustling streets with all the shops and curiosities that reveal themselves around every corner.
Rua Augusta Arch
A triumphant monumental arch located at the end of Rua Augusta, built in the 18th century after the tragic earthquake. We recommend climbing to the outdoor balcony at the top of the arch and enjoying the impressive views over the Tagus River and all the hustle and bustle of the Baixa Pombalina.
Rossio Station
This railway station, which connects Lisbon and Sintra, features a magnificent Neo-Manueline style façade built at the beginning of the 20th century. It is an interesting crossing point for Lisbon residents who daily head to the city centre for work, but it also invites all visitors to appreciate the beauty of its façade.
São Jorge Castle
Guardian of the city, this medieval castle is linked to the conquest of Lisbon in the 12th century by the first King of Portugal. Its walls bear witness to the bravery of its people, and its viewpoints are the privileged place to appreciate all the beauty of the city and contemplate the sunset at the end of a day full of stories.
We are sure you won’t want to miss the opportunity to feel the city’s vibe and add new stories to Lisbon’s history.
