Lisbon Pictures Guide
Torre de Belem

 Torre de Belem, Lisbon, Portugal

Torre de Belem, the Belem Tower, built in 1515

More Manueline work, this time on a fort guarding Lisbon's harbour. The tower is only just offshore thanks to the moving sands and silt of time, and has free entry. For tourists with functioning legs it's about a kilometre [half a mile] from the Mosteiro dos Jeronimos and the Discoveries Monument.
