Location

The Tileiras Garden is located in Belém, one of Lisbon's most emblematic areas. This green space is integrated into the vast grounds of the Belém Palace, the current official residence of the President of the Portuguese Republic, lending it an atmosphere of particular institutional relevance and a distinct landscape setting in the capital.

A Historical Legacy

The existence of the Tileiras Garden is intrinsically linked to the construction of the Belém Palace, commissioned in 1726 by King John V. Thus, this garden is part of a set of spaces that have witnessed centuries of Portuguese history, from the times of the monarchy to the current republican era. Its presence complements the architectural grandeur of the palace, offering a dimension of natural and historical beauty to the location.

A Green and Serene Refuge

With its name evoking the linden trees, trees recognized for their dense shade and the gentle fragrance of their flowers, the Tileiras Garden invites a tranquil experience. It is a place where one can enjoy a moment of calm, appreciating the simplicity of nature in contrast to the imposing surrounding palace. This garden offers an environment conducive to a serene pause, away from the city's hustle and bustle.
