📍 From Square, Portugal
Chafariz das Janelas Verdes is a significant historical landmark in Lisbon, Portugal. Built in 1779, the structure stands near the St. Jerome Monastery in the Alfama district, serving as an ornamental fountain. Its name comes from the green and white tiles that adorn its walls, a typical feature of Portuguese architecture from the 1700s, which give the building its characteristic appearance. The city of Lisbon has also declared it a UNESCO World Heritage Site due to its cultural importance. Tourists can admire its unique façade and take in the beautiful panoramic views of the city and Tagus River. Visitors can also explore the small nearby garden and take a leisurely stroll through the narrow cobblestone streets of Alfama. The peaceful atmosphere makes this spot a favorite among locals and tourists alike, who can enjoy a moment of relaxation amidst the vibrant urban setting.
