Souvenirs and handcraft Portugal

 Shopping

New or ancient, azulejos, which are coloured tiles typical of the country, are the most famous souvenirs to take away with you. Local handicrafts, found at the markets, make authentic souvenirs: wickerwork objects, leather bags, embroidery and lace, ceramics and pottery.

In Lisbon, the Lisboa Shopping Card entitles you to reductions of 5% to 20% in more than 200 shops in the districts of Baixa, Chiado, and on Avenidade da Liberdade. Available for 24 or 72 hours, you can purchase one from airports or tourist offices. It costs ?3.70 (£3.35) for a 24 hour card and ?5.80 (£5.25) for a 72 hour card.

Shops are open from 9:00am to 1:00pm and 3:00pm to 7:00pm on week days, and from 9:00am to 1:00pm on Saturdays. These opening hours do not apply to shopping centres, which are generally open every day from 10:00am to 11:00pm.
