Take home leather goods from Campo de Ourique, designer clothes from Avenida da
Liberdade and rummage for bargains in the Feira da Ladra.
Shopping Streets
Pick up custom clothing at A Outra Face da Lua in the Baixa area, and gifts,
perfume and fashion in the Armazens do Chiado. Indulge yourself in Armani and
Burberry designs along Avenida da Liberdade, and leatherwear and jewellery in
Campo de Ourique. Spend the afternoon at Colombo, Vasco da
Gama and Amoreiras shopping centres for international chains, music and
homeware items.
Go to the Alfama early on a Tuesday or Saturday for bargain bric-a-brac at the
Thieves Market. See a slice of life at the atmospheric Ribeira
Market, which sells fish daily by Cais do Sodré station –
there's also a flower market and crafts upstairs.
Shops open Monday to Friday 9am-7pm. Shops tend to close for lunch from 1pm-3pm and
on Saturday some shops close at 1pm for the day. Shopping centres stay open all day
until 11pm. Markets generally open from 8am-2pm each day and the Thieves Market from
7am-6pm Tuesday and Saturday. Ask at the Lisbon Welcome Centre about the Shopping
Card – it gives discounts at certain shops and lasts 24 or 72
hours.
