Largo do Contador Mor is a square in the Alfama district of Lisbon. The square is named after the Contador Mor, the head of the royal treasury during the time of the Portuguese monarchy. Largo do Contador Mor retains much of its old-world charm today, with cobblestone streets, colorful buildings, and decorative tiles adorning the facades.

Alfama is one of the oldest and most historic neighborhoods in Lisbon. It is located on a hillside overlooking the Tagus River and is characterized by its narrow winding streets, colorful buildings, and picturesque alleys.

One of the defining features of Alfama is its Moorish influence, which is evident in its architecture and layout. The neighborhood is home to several historic landmarks, including the São Jorge Castle, a medieval fortress that offers panoramic views of the city, and the Sé Cathedral, one of the oldest churches in Lisbon.

Alfama is also famous for its vibrant atmosphere and lively street life. Visitors can explore its maze-like streets and discover hidden squares, homely cafes, and traditional taverns where they can listen to Fado music, a genre of Portuguese folk music that originated in Lisbon.

The neighborhood is known for its strong sense of community, with locals often gathering in its squares and streets to socialize and celebrate festivals and events throughout the year. One of the most popular events in Alfama is the Feast of Saint Anthony, which takes place every June and is celebrated with street parties, parades, and traditional food.

The property is easily accessible by public transport and by car.

The nearest streetcar and bus stop, Miradouro Sta. Luzia is just a 2-minute walk away.

The Chão de Loureiro elevator is just a 5-minute walk away.

Humberto Delgado Airport is a 24-minute drive from the property.
