About

Lisbon, the capital of Portugal, is one of the most beautiful and cosmopolitan cities in Europe.Located on a series of hills near the mouth of the Tagus river, it is an inextricably large place.Unpowered navigators have embarked here in the fifteenth and sixteenth centuries to navigate unknown waters and to draw new lands, and the inheritance of this golden age of discovery is the basis of a large part of the city’s culture and heritage.

Domaining the Belém Water Belt is the angular monument of discoveries, an enormous monolite that leans over the Tagus river to resemble the pros of a carave, the type of ship commanded by the Portuguese navigators in the fifteenth century to draw unexplorated oceans and to discover new lands.This landmark structure was built in 1960 to commemorate 500 years since Henric's death.A tribute is brought to all those actively involved in the development of the Golden Age of the discovery, through an amazing frieze of statues seated along both parts of the monument of the most prominent personalities, figures such as Vasco da Gama, Fernão de Magalhães and Pedro Álves Cabral.Henry himself sits in front, with the caravela in his hand.In the esplanade below is a huge sidewalk, a giant mosaic map in the world that presents the locations and data in which each new land was discovered.It is one of the most unusual photography opportunities in Lisbon.
