Old Town Lagos, Medieval district in Lagos, Portugal.
The historic center features narrow cobblestone streets lined with white buildings, traditional tile work, and wrought iron balconies along the coastal fortifications.
During the 15th century, Prince Henry the Navigator established his maritime headquarters here, making Lagos a crucial port for Portuguese exploration vessels.
The Church of Saint Anthony displays extensive Brazilian gold decorations throughout its interior, representing the wealth acquired during Portugal's colonial period.
The district contains numerous restaurants serving fresh seafood from the municipal market, with outdoor seating areas spread across multiple pedestrian squares.
The 16th-century town walls incorporate Roman and Moorish fortification elements, offering views across red-tiled roofs toward the Atlantic Ocean.
