🌴 About the Garden
The Jardim Botânico da Ajuda is the oldest botanical garden in Portugal and one of the most peaceful green spaces in Lisbon. Originally created in the 18th century, it features beautiful terraces, fountains, exotic plants, tropical trees, sculptures, and charming viewpoints overlooking the city and the Tagus River.

It’s a lovely place to relax, walk around, take photos, and enjoy nature away from the busy city atmosphere.
