There is no Fado music without the Portuguese Guitar.
With 6 double strings and a unique sound, there is actually 3 different kinds: the one from Porto, the one from Coimbra and the one from Lisbon.
We explain all about it on our Sunset, Fado and Dinner walking tour

Lisbon's first kiosk opened in 1869, in Rossio Square. But soon after they were all over the city, serving wine and traditional refreshments, like perfumed milk 🤔. They almost disappears during the dictatorship due to the fascist regime's distaste of public gatherings. In recent years they have been restored and the tradition has been revived. The Kiosk in the picture (Kiosk of Camões Square) was the first one to be restored in 2009.
But you can find out more about it in our Experience Lisbon Walking Tour.

The square with two names.
Before the Lisbon earthquake of 1755, this square was known as Terreiro do Paço (Royal Courtyard). After it was rebuilt, the name was changed to Commerce Square to honor the merchants that finance the process of reconstruction of the city.
Both names are still used by the locals today, originating a huge confusion in the ones that visit us.
