Largo do Carmo is a very interesting place, mostly by its various nearby attractions, such as one of the must-to stops on your Lisbon itinerary, the Convento do Carmo, an imposing building that partially survived the 1775 earthquake, also housing Carmo Archaeological Museum, or the Elevador de Santa Justa, right around the corner, via the small passageway of Travessa Dom Pedro de Menezes, the best way to beat the crowds (of its downtown entrance), or the headquarters of the National Guard (GNR General Command), an iconic landmark in Portugal's Carnation Revolution, where on April 25, 1974 the last Portugal's dictator Caetano officially ceded power to the rebels. A National Guard Museum (Museu da Guarda Nacional Republicana) is located in the same building. The square itself, formed by a convergence of about 4 or 5 streets, with its calming greenery, an XVIIIth century fountain (Chafariz do Carmo), and a Quiosque Lisboa, a round-shaped kiosk offering hot beverages, wine, snacks and light meals, with sitting-down area complete with chairs, tables, and umbrellas against the elements, makes the location one of the coziest in the city.
