Hiking

The history of the Arco da Rua Augusta begins in 1755, with the devastating earthquake that destroyed a large part of Lisbon's buildings. It was then that it was decided to raise this arch as a symbol of the reconstruction of the city, which was beginning a new architectural stage at the hands of the Marquis of Pombal.

Hiking

Rua Augusta is one of the most iconic streets in Lisbon, located in the heart of the Baixa district. This lively pedestrian street connects Praça do Comércio to Praça do Rossio through the impressive Triumphal Arch.
