Rua da Cruz dos Poiais is a charming little street in Lisbon, somewhat off the beaten track. It runs down the hill from the Principe Real area, skirting Estrela and the parliament. Not sure how I ended up here, but it's a nice find.
The name "Poiais" can mean one of two things; either a stone bench, or a high place. I would hazzard a guess the street name translates to "Cross of the high place".
