阿尔法玛（Alfama）是里斯本最古老的城区，分布在圣若热城堡和特茹河之间的山坡地带。其名称来源于阿拉伯语 Al-hamma，意为喷泉或浴室。该区拥有许多重要历史名胜，许多法朵酒吧和餐馆。

在摩尔人统治时期，阿尔法玛就是整个城市。后来城市扩展到西面的Baixa。阿尔法玛成了渔民和穷人居住区。1755年里斯本地震没有摧毁阿尔法玛，它仍然是一个美丽如画的由狭窄街道和小广场构成的迷宫。近来，该区的老房子进行修复，开设餐馆，可以在此享受法多 - 典型的葡萄牙忧郁音乐。

中世纪的圣若热城堡俯瞰着阿尔法玛，这里直到16世纪初都是王宫，现在是观赏城市风景的最佳地点。在阿尔法玛的山坡，还有一些观景台（miradouros）能够观赏城市，像靠近圣卢西亚教堂的圣卢西亚观景台（在摩尔人的城墙遗址上面），和太阳门观景台（Miradouro das Portas do Sol）。圣卢西亚观景台附近有装饰艺术博物馆（Museu de Artes Decorativas），这是一座17世纪的大厦，内部颇为壮观。

The Alfama (Portuguese pronunciation: [aɫˈfɐmɐ]) is the oldest district of Lisbon, spreading on the slope between the São Jorge Castle and the Tejo river. Its name comes from the Arabic Al-hamma, meaning "hot fountains" or "baths" (the name "Alfama" could also be derived from the Arabic word Alfamm, meaning the "mouth" in Arabic. It is pronounced variously depending on the location of the word in a sentence). The district includes the freguesias (parishes) of São Miguel, Santo Estêvão, São Vicente de Fora and part of the two streets, "Freguesia da Sé: Rua do Barão" and "Rua São João da Praça". It contains many important historical attractions, as well as an abundance of Fado bars and restaurants.
