staying in Graca neighborhood, Lisbon
 

My husband and I, in our 70s, good but slow walkers, are thinking of staying in the Graca district of Lisbona week in late April. It seems that the tram and perhaps busses will be good transport to other parts of the city? And many interesting flats to select from. We like the idea of being in the city but in a neighborhood with fewer tourists, local shops and restaurants. Do those of you who have been to Lisbon agree?

Thank you.
