Lisbon Street Art Culture

The best way to get to know Lisbon and to see its full charm is by its street art culture.The Portuguese capital is now known as one of the cities with the best street art and some great local artists. True open-air galleries where artists from around the world give life and brightness to some hidden places, giving each of them a new identity.

Street Art has long been a part of Lisbon`s culture. Until the 18th century most of the buildings in Lisbon were white coloured . After the strong earthquake of 1755, richer areas began to put some colours and tile into walls and pavements. Early graffiti was mainly an expression of artists in poor areas. After the democratic revolution in 1974, this self -expression increased and nowadays we have beautiful art that covers the streets of Lisbon.

Street art in Lisbon is an already popular attraction to visitors, and if you still haven't decided whether or not to visit Lisbon, maybe this article will help you decide.
