We didn't go as far as Lisbon. Belem is on the doorstep of Lisbon. Here is the 50m high Monument to the Discoveries and the Torre de Belem, which was built in 1514-1520 to protect the port entrance on the banks of the Tagus.

Today we made a trip to Belém. First we were in a bakery where the pasteis de nata were invented. A custard-like pastry.

Then came a gigantic monastery where seagulls attacked my drone.

Furthermore, the Padrão dos Descobrimentos comes to German The Monument to the Explorers which was inaugurated in 1960 to honor and honor the old explorers and seafarers.
