7. Praca do Comercio

   Praça do Comércio, still commonly referred to by its former name as Terreiro do Paço, is a square in downtown Lisbon, where it was the palace of the kings of Portugal for about two centuries and which today is partially occupied by some government departments. It is one of the biggest squares in Europe. It was for a long time the noble entrance to Lisbon and, on the marble steps of Cais das Colunas, coming from the river, heads of state and other prominent figures disembarked and were received. In the center of the square, you can see the equestrian statue D. José, erected in 1775 by Joaquim Machado de Castro, the main Portuguese sculptor of the 18th century. On the north side of the square is the Arco Triunfal da Rua Augusta, the entrance to downtown.
