Back Lisboa


Praça do Comércio in Lisbon, Portugal — the big waterfront square with the Arco da Rua Augusta
and the equestrian statue of King José I right in the center.


Belém Tower (Torre de Belém) is one of Lisbon’s most iconic landmarks — a 16th-century
fortress built to guard the entrance to the Tagus River and to serve as a ceremonial gateway for Portuguese explorers.
It’s a UNESCO World Heritage Site and a symbol of Portugal’s Age of Discoveries.

Jeronimos Monastery (Mosteiro dos Jerónimos) is one of Portugal’s most important historical
and architectural landmarks — a masterpiece of Manueline (Portuguese Gothic) design
