TOURISM

Lisbon, a historical city constantly recognized as one of the greatest cities in the world, is the capital of Portugal, where the sun shines 290 days a year and the thermometer almost never drops below 15 °C. The city offers a welcoming and liberal atmosphere, while still embracing its deep-rooted heritage and extensive history. Visitors from all over the world come to Lisbon because of its reputation, enjoy its cuisine —the bacalhau is the specialty in Lisbon restaurants—, and end up seduced by its magnetic rhythm.

WHAT TO SEE
The Centro Cultural de Belém is surrounded by historical monuments such as:

  • Torre de Belém: UNESCO World Heritage, a cornerstone of Portuguese identity and an icon of a country historically molded by its proximity to the ocean and its maritime discoveries of new worlds. 850 m. 10-min walk.
  • Monument to the Discoveries in Lisbon: This monument commemorates the five hundred anniversary of the death of Henry the Navigator, who discovered the Azores, Madeira, and Cape Verde. 500 m. 5-min walk.
  • Mosteiro dos Jerónimos: Right next to the old Belém beach is the Jerónimos Monastery, one of the most remarkable Portuguese monastic ensembles of its time and one of Europe’s leading churches. 400 m. 4-min walk.
