Located in Belém, the Jerónimos Monastery is a masterpiece of Manueline architecture and a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Built in the 16th century, it commemorates the Portuguese Discoveries and stands out for its ornate carved stone church and cloister. It serves as the pantheon for iconic figures such as Vasco da Gama and Luís Vaz de Camões.
Standing 52 meters tall in Belém, this imposing monument represents a stylized caravel led by Prince Henry the Navigator, followed by 32 prominent figures linked to maritime expansion. The plaza in front features a large Compass Rose crafted in stonework. From the top of the monument, visitors can enjoy panoramic views of the Belém area.
Sintra is a UNESCO World Heritage town featuring a unique cultural landscape and a romantic atmosphere. Nestled in the Serra de Sintra, its lush vegetation frames palaces, castles, and historic estates, reflecting the Portuguese royalty and nobility’s preference for the area.
Located west of Lisbon, Cascais is a coastal town with strong cosmopolitan appeal. Once a former fishing village, it transformed into a favorite summer destination for nobility and royalty while maintaining its sophisticated atmosphere today. It is known for its urban beaches, picturesque bay, and modern marina.
