  3. Fábrica Sant'Ana

    Since 1741 this azulejo -maker (hand-painted tile maker) has been creating everything from tiny handmade tiles to fountains. The shop is jam-packed with a huge array of tiles (and some very cute cherubs) and while there is plenty of stuff that falls on the wrong side of kitsch, you can order wonderful custom tiles and have them shipped.

  4. Feira de Ladra

    A motley bunch of Lisboetas and their equally eclectic wares stretch virtually all the way from the Mosteiro de S Vicente de Fora to the Panteão Nacional de Santa Engrácia for Lisbon's best-known flea market, or 'thieves' market'. You'll find everything from army surplus gear to random CD collections, incense to piles of clothes. And that's just one stall!

  5. Madeira House

    Ignore the gaudy souvenirs and bizarre cork products. This is the best place to buy quality hand-embroidered Madeira lace and linen, including tablecloths, place mats and napkin sets. They also sell colourful Barcelos' roosters and beautifully glazed Hispano-Arab geometric patterned tiles - they make great 'features' for fans of minimalism.
