Chão do Loureiro Viewpoint
On the roof of the former Chão do Loureiro Market, this viewpoint uses the difference in level between Baixa and Castle Hill. The terrace offers an intermediate perspective on the city, with nearby rooftops and the river beyond, and forms part of the pedestrian connections crossing the hillside. Largo do Chão do Loureiro and Calçada do Marquês de Tancos connect different levels of the old city around it. Its interest lies in the relationship between an everyday urban building and a viewing space created on its roof. Access to the terrace may depend on the operation of the building’s connections and the spaces occupying it.
