The historic jewel that survived Lisbon's earthquake

In the heart of Lisbon, between the historic districts of Chiado, Bairro Alto and Príncipe Real, stands the majestic Palácio Ludovice. Built in the early 1700s, this emblematic building was the private residence of João Federico Ludovice, the architect of King João V, and has now been transformed into a luxury hotel. But this XVIII century palace is much more than a boutique hotel ; it's above all a living testimony to Lisbon's turbulent history.
