The neighbourhood

Living in Alto dos Moinhos

It is the practical choice for anyone at Instituto Politécnico de Lisboa, the campus is close enough to walk, and for people who would rather spend their rent on space than on a postcode.

The area sits between the Bela Vista of Benfica and the parkland around the Aqueduto das Águas Livres, so there is far more green here than in the centre. The Colombo shopping centre and the Benfica stadium are both a short ride away.

The blue line runs direct to Marquês de Pombal, Avenida and Baixa without a change, which is what makes the quiet affordable rather than isolating.
