The Belém Tower, built at the narrowest point of the Tagus estuary, was intended to defend Lisbon.
Initially surrounded by the waters around its perimeter, today, this structure is symbolically linked to land by a pedestrian bridge. This was the way found to preserve its original context.
Classified as a World Heritage Site by UNESCO, since 1983, Belém Tower is undoubtedly one of the most expressive monuments of Lisbon.
Padrao dos Descobrimentos (Pass By)
With 50 meters high, the Discoveries Monument has the shape of a ship, comprising two ramps that ends on the prow with the statue of the initiator of the Discoveries Age – Henry, the Navigator. Also, Fernão de Magalhães, Luís de Camões, Pedro Álvares Cabral and Vasco da Gama are some of the 32 figures sculpted in stone and that can be found on the monument. These represents an historical summary of personalities linked directly or indirectly to the Age of the Discoveries.
The original Discoveries Monument was built in 1940 for the Portuguese World Exhibition. It was designed by the architec and film-maker Continelli Telmo.
It was built on perishable materials and dismantled three years later, in 1943.

The earth shook violently. Thousands of buildings collapsed mainly in the downtown area and on the hillside to the Chiado. The Palácio Real da Ribeira, the Teatro da Ópera, convents, palaces, schools, hospitals, … Everything collapsed.
The square adopted in the reconstruction plans made it possible to design Terreiro do Paço, a majestic square open onto the Tagus estuary.
Today this square hosts major events all year round. One of the most impressive is the fireworks display put on by the Lisbon City Council on New Year’s Eve.
Ponte 25 de Abril (Pass By)
Sometimes named as the “Portuguese Golden Gate Bridge” because of its similarities with the suspension bridge of San Francisco (USA). In fact, after more than 50 years of ideas and projects, the construction of this bridge was attributed to the same North American company.

Experience to remember!
Published on Aug, 2024
Let me tell you about one of the most amazing boat trips that I have ever done.
It all started with the reservation process, which was fast and clear about all the aspects to be expected on the day of the trip. We were able to select from a wide range of boats that would best serve our needs. We also had some special requests about the drinks and menu served on board which were altered according to our needs.
As we came on board we were welcomed by the crew, all the safety measures were explained and we were given a small tour around the boat so that we knew where to find what we needed. This was of special importance in our group, because we had some children with us. The crew stayed attentive and engaged with them at all moments.
The food and beverages were amazing, with top quality products, attention to the details were of the essence, specifically because we had some group members that had some food intolerances.
The crew was very well coordinated ,helpful and friendly, attentive to all of our needs at every moment, making sure nothing was missing and that we were having a great time. We could tell that this was an experienced crew with a strong leadership.
We loved the whole trip, all the sights were breathing taking and the sun set was unforgettable. All in all, it was smooth sailing and an experience that I would recommend to anyone.
