    Our favorite place so far in the city very quite open space and sometimes if you are lucky you can find local activities, like food trucks, live shows, some people playing guitar, we had a lot fun here

    Fonte Luminosa is a fantastic spot! Reach it via the Green or Red Line metro to the Alameda stop. The park is right on top. It’s a huge, scenic space perfect for bringing a dog. With plenty of benches, amazing statues, and the grand fountain, it’s an ideal location for taking great pictures.
