The Bairro de Santos, or Santos-o-Velho, is known for its design shops and art schools, as well as the bars and clubs that so many young people attract. However, this is also a district of old mansions, similar to the Lapa district. It was in this neighborhood that the nobility and the bourgeoisie settled in the 18th century, and many of these palaces are now hotels or embassies. Santos has increasingly assumed itself as Lisbon's design district. It is in this neighborhood that you will find stores such as Paris-Sete, AR Interiores, Re-Use, Roche Bobois, among others. In addition to the design stores, you will also find galleries, museums and spaces for artists' cooperatives in Santos-o-Velho, as well as the IADE building, a well-known design college. Restaurants are also a good reason to visit Santos-o-Velho. In this neighborhood you can find the most traditional, such as Varina da Madragoa, or the State Liquid, famous for its fusion sushi. This is also one of the main points of nightlife for young people in Lisbon.
