The Conde dos Arcos Farm in Olivais is home to Lisbon Council’s Schools of Gardening and Calceteiros – the craftspeople who lay Lisbon’s famous calçada paving stones. Alongside these learning establishments that keep the city beautiful there is also a council nursery, a horticultural park, a playground, and a cafeteria.
On this visit you will discover the 28 species of trees the Farm is known for, among them a wide-canopied bunya-bunya (Araucaria bidwillii).
