Location

António Feijó Garden is located in the city of Lisbon, within the Anjos area, specifically next to Avenida Almirante Reis. This green space embraces the imposing Church of Nossa Senhora dos Anjos, serving as a landscaped extension of its surroundings and offering an oasis of serenity in the heart of the urban area.

Its central position in the parish of Arroios makes it a local landmark, easily integrated into the daily life of the city.

A Haven of Tranquility

Also known as Jardim dos Anjos (Angels' Garden), this spot offers a calm and inviting atmosphere, contrasting with the surrounding dynamism. It is a refuge for those seeking a moment of pause in the bustling capital, inviting reading, conversation, or simply observation.

Its flowerbeds, delineated with fences, and the presence of robust trees, provide shaded areas and an environment conducive to relaxation. It is a space that complements the imposing nature of the church beside it, reinforcing the singular character of the area.

Natural and Aesthetic Heritage

The garden stands out for its composition, where the traditional Portuguese pavement intertwines with the vegetation. Among the natural elements, two trees of the species Phytolacca dioica L. stand out, classified since 1947 as being of Public Interest.

These large trees are a testament to the botanical richness of the site and contribute significantly to the shade and coolness the garden provides. The space pays homage to the Portuguese poet António de Castro Feijó, adding a cultural layer to its existence.
