EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time to the early 20th century in this image of Rossio Square, the heart of Lisbon, Portugal. The year is 1903, and the scene is a bustling hub of activity, with horse-drawn carriages and people going about their daily business. At the center of the square, the majestic statue of Pedro IV, the King of Portugal from 1826 to 1834, stands proudly on his horse, overlooking the wavy stonework that surrounds him. The intricate and unique design of the square's paving stones, with their undulating patterns, is a testament to the Portuguese craftsmanship and attention to detail. The statue, a symbol of Portuguese history and heritage, is a popular gathering place for locals and tourists alike. The surrounding buildings, with their ornate facades and colorful tiles, add to the vibrant and lively atmosphere of the square. Rossio Square, also known as Dom Pedro IV Square, has been a focal point of Lisbon for centuries. It was originally built in the 18th century and has undergone several renovations over the years. Today, it remains an essential part of the city's cultural and historical landscape, attracting visitors from around the world who come to experience the rich history and beauty of Portugal's capital. This photograph, taken in 1903, offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us back in time to a simpler era. The wavy stonework, the statue of Pedro IV, and the lively atmosphere of Rossio Square continue to captivate and inspire, making it a must-see destination for anyone visiting Lisbon.
