Traveling the World #42 (Europe Series) Alfama - Lisbon @ Portugal 🇵🇹 (1)- 向世界出發 #42 (歐洲系列) - 阿尔法瑪 - 里斯本 @ 葡萄牙 🇵🇹 (上）

Hi Steemians

There are loads to see in Portugal and the first stop I took you was at Cascais and today I'll be taking you Lisbon's oldest district - Alfama. The name Alfama means hot fountain or bath from the Arabic Al-hamma. Alfama has loads of history and culture where you can be here for a full day and still seems like you haven't explored the suburb enough. Depending how you travel, you can visit Alfama all in one day but if you have time, I would recommend 2 days as there were loads to see.

在葡萄牙真是有很多不同景點看。上一個景點是卡斯凯什而今天我會帶你們去里斯本裡的舊區 - 阿尔法瑪. .阿尔法瑪是阿拉伯 Al-hamma 的語言 - 意思是噴泉和浴室。阿尔法瑪裡有很多歷史文化所以你可以整天在這裡看看都好像都不夠。其實一天來看阿尔法瑪已經夠用但如果你有時間的話我建議你可以用兩天來慢慢看。

The popular route to get to Alfama is to catch the number 28 tram but I recommend just walk up the hill as it is not too hard to get to. The tram is extremely busy and popular with tourists so but the time you get on the tram, you could of just walked up. The first thing you would notice when you around Alfama is the cobblestone streets and old houses. The steep hill is definitely not an easy walk but during the walk, you are able to see the shops along the side and use the opportunity to take plenty of photos of the surroundings.

如果想用最受歡迎方法到阿尔法瑪就是坐28號電車但我個人建議可以走路上山都一個不錯的選擇．如果選擇搭電車的話給你們要有心理準備就是電車非常擠迫．到了.阿尔法瑪第一樣東西你會發現就是街上的路是用鵝卵石做的和周圍都是很多舊屋．這條很斜的路雖然不是很容易走但沿路你可以看見不同的商店和可以用這個機會拍很多漂亮的照片留念。

As we were walking up the slope, we saw many locals and they were so friendly telling us what to see and what to look out for. So the first stop we arrive at Lisbon Cathedral also called the Se Cathedral. This cathedral has a lot of history and culture and is the oldest church in the city. The outside of the cathedral looks like a fortress and he moment you step inside there is a gothic feel to it and the whole area looks really dark.

原路走上山你會看見很多當地人，他們很友善告訴我們要看什麼和要注意什麼．第一站我們到了里斯本主教座堂。這個座堂有很多歷史和文化而是這個城市最古老的教堂。這間教堂在外面看好像一座城堡但你進去的時候感覺有點像哥德風格的，而整間教堂都比較暗．

As you can see, the whole place is very dark. There are lots of history inside the cathedral and you can see some of the ruins from a powerful earthquake.

在相片你可以看到成間教堂都比較暗．裡面有很多歷史而可以看見以前地震遺留的痕跡．

After a quick tour of the cathedral, we can out and saw two trams going by taking more tourists downhill. As you can see, there is only one lane therefore the cars behind will need to stop when the tram drop off or pickup people. Can you see where I am?

參觀完教堂之後，我們看見兩架電車帶乘客落山。上落這條路每邊只有一條線所以如果電車要停給乘客上落車，後面的車輛要慢慢等候．你看到我嗎？

The outside of some residential buildings looked like the original structure from the early ages. Not only it shows age, but shows character.

這裡的外牆你可以看見是以前的建築物，沒有任何修改．不但可以看見這些建築物的年紀亦可以帶給整個城市的舊風格
