Lisbon


View on Lisbon with The Praça do Comércio (Commerce Square) and Tagus river. The square is still commonly known as Terreiro do Paço (Palace Square), because it was the location of the Paços da Ribeira (Royal Ribeira Palace) until it was destroyed by the great 1755 Lisbon Earthquake. After the earthquake, the square was completely remodelled. From Helena.
