The magnificent Jerónimos Monastery dazzles with its Manueline architecture, while the Padrão dos Descobrimentos celebrates the navigators who took Portugal overseas.

What To Expect
Jeronimos Monastery
Located in Belém, formerly called Mosteiro de Santa Maria de Belém and order to build by the king D. Manuel I., the construction started at the beginning of the century XVI and extended for a hundred years. This monastry is the most remarkable portuguese monastic ensemble of it's time and one of main hall-church in Europe. It was classified as a national monument since 1907 and in 1983 a s a world heritage by UNESCO. On July 7, 2007 it was elected as one of the seven wonders of Portugal. Linked to the Portuguese Royal House and the epic Discoveries, the Mosteiro dos Jerónimos was, from a very early stage, internalized as one of the symbols of the nation. Since 2016 it has the status of national pantheon.
Torre de Belem
The Belém Tower is located on the right riverside of rio Tejo, where once existed the praia de Belém. It was originally surrounded by water in its entire perimeter. The monument is an architectural icon from the reign of D. Manuel I. Over time, the tower lost its defense function of the Tejo line and began to be used for dungeons. The monument stands out for its implicit nationalism, such characteristics refer to the typical architecture of a time when the country was a global power (at the beginning of the Modern Age). Like the Mosteiro dos Jerónimos, it was classified in 1983 as a UNESCO World Heritage Site and elected as one of the Seven Wonders of Portugal in 2007.
