Praça Luís de Camões in Lisbon – located between the Chiado and Bairro Alto districts – is a beautiful, bright square with shady trees, surrounded by imposing facades from bygone eras.

Luís de Camões is considered Portugal's most important poet. His epic poem "The Lusiads" is an example of the highest poetry of the Renaissance. It is no wonder, then, that the Portuguese revere this man, and even his death day, June 10th, has been declared a national holiday. It is not even known today whether he died in 1579 or 1580. But this does not diminish his legacy.

Praça Luís de Camões is the square that played a crucial role in the Carnation Revolution. Specifically, it was on April 25, 1974, that the people of Lisbon celebrated their regained freedom.

A great busy place. Lots of hype. The historic tram also passes here.
