Quinta da Alagoa Park

It once belonged to the Jesuits and was where the famed Carcavelos wine was made. Today it is a green urban space that retains some of the original forest, boxwood – with representations of animals in boxwood – and has tennis courts, children’s playgrounds and a lagoon. You can visit to read the paper, grab 40 winks, catch some sun or just wander around for the fun of it.
