This isn’t just a photo walk. It’s a history quest.

Alfama is full of stories — Moorish walls, vanished churches, hidden fountains. Most people walk past without noticing. On this quest, we’ll uncover them through clues, old photos, and photo challenges.

How it works:

🟡 You’ll get a link with tasks and historic images

🟡 Work in small teams (a great way to meet new people), the host will be leading you through the whole itinerary

🟡 Each stop has a challenge: find, photograph, or decode something from the past

🟡 We finish together at a local spot for a drink and to share discoveries

Practical details:

⏱️ Duration: ~1.5 hours

📷 Any camera works — phone, digital, or film

👟 Bring curiosity + comfortable shoes

🎁 Bonus: Finish one quest and you’ll receive a free ticket for the next one.
