#TravelMoon #Lisbon #Portugal #BoatTour 📍 Doca do Bom Sucesso, Lisboa, Portugal ⏰Opening Hours: Doca do Bom Sucesso, Lisboa, Portugal 🇵🇹Lisbon Boat Tour🇵🇹 Romance on a boat, Lisbon Boat Tour!🚤 The boat tour is a tour where you can enjoy the charm of Lisbon by taking a small boat and going around the Tagus River in Lisbon. It was personally the best experience I had in Lisbon:) You can listen to the captain's kind explanations while passing various attractions, and if you're lucky, you can drive the boat yourself! They even provide beer, wine, and simple snacks, so this is heaven! When the boat passes by, people on land wave their hands and say hello, and I really like that👋🏻 If you make a reservation at sunset, you can enjoy a beautiful sunset on the boat, so I recommend making a reservation at the right time👍🏻 If you go at the last time, the tour may last longer at the captain's discretion😉

Ponto Final is really a different experience altogether! The place is definitely not easily accessible but you can make it on foot! It is right down by the sea near Lisbon. Take a Bolt to get you there and there is a lift that will get you down to the restaurant. We are here because it was featured in Somebody Feed Phil, and we were so excited because this place do not have ANY BARRIER! SO if you accidentally slipped! You will fall right into the sea! The seafood is fresh and succulent, try the Baccaulau if you have not, it is cured cod fish with potatoes and chick peas. Different places have different version of it. This was definitely the highlight of our trip here at Portugal! Give it a try if you are there! Address - Ponto Final, Portugal , Almada Ambiance/Facilities - By the sea with perfect view of Lisbon. Highlights - Fresh seafood and nice staff Avg. Price per Person - €20-£30 Rating - 5/5 #portugal ##pontofinal #lisbonfood #lisboneats #lisbontravel #seafood

#celebratewithtrip The 1950s Sanctuary of Christ the King is a Catholic monument and shrine dedicated to the Sacred Heart of Jesus Christ overlooking the city of Lisbon, situated in Almada. The statue was inspired by the Christ of Redeemer statue of Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. The monument was erected on an isolated clifftop 133 meters above sea level. It consists of a trapezoidal pedestal of 82 meters height, formed by four arches and a platform, supporting the 28 meters image of Christ. The journey by public transport is not difficult, a scenic ferry ride from Cais do Sodre to Cacilhas ferry terminal, and then take the bus 3001 to the monument, the bus station is just beside the ferry terminal. For visitors, the main draw is the magnificent panoramic view over Lisbon and the Ponte 25 de Abril. €6 is the entrance fee to the viewing platform on the top by lift.

I once saw this saying: "If God can save Portugal from war, build a statue on the other side of Lisbon that shows the Sacred Heart of Jesus." I don't know if this statue of the Sacred Heart is copied from Lisbon. Its still Rios plagiarism of the sovereign state. In short, its still worth a visit. The Great Jesus is actually located in the Almaida area on the other side of the Belm area, and its tall figure has long been one of the landmarks of the city of Lisbon. The statue of Jesus is 110 meters high. The statue is a viewing platform that can be reached by elevator (5). There is a small prayer room on the ground floor of the base, and a direct elevator to the top view platform. Here you can see the Tejo River and the opposite Lisbon cityscape, as well as the famous April 25th Bridge. The bridge is very similar in shape to the Golden Gate Bridge in San Francisco, USA, and is said to have been built by the same company. When the bridge was built, it was the fifth largest suspension bridge in the world at that time.

The Big Jesus in Lisbon is 110 meters high and is situated on the green hill at the end of the bridge on April 25. This statue of Jesus is exactly the same as the statue of Jesus in Rio, Brazil. It is whether Lisbon copied plagiarism or whether Rio copied the sovereign state, it would be confusing, but it is indeed worth a visit. The picture in the church below Jesus tells the history of its architecture, and the stories of the devout women who thank God for blessing them who survived World War II. Take the elevator to the observation deck, where you can enjoy the beautiful view of the opposite city of Lisbon and the magnificent river view of the Tejo River. In addition, the church provides a variety of services for the congregation, including confession and baptism. The most important thing to mention is the wedding. Intentional visitors can arrange a special wedding on the trip to give the bride a surprise.

#traveldiaries Spent a day exploring Belém in Lisbon, and it was absolutely packed with history and culture! 🏰 First stop was the iconic Jerónimos Monastery. The entrance fee was €10, but it was worth every cent – the intricate Manueline architecture and the serene cloisters were just stunning. Right next to it is the famous Pastéis de Belém bakery, where I had to try the legendary custard tarts. 🥮 There was a line, but trust me, it’s worth the wait! Afterwards, I walked down to the Belém Tower, a 16th-century fortress on the river. The entrance fee was €6, and climbing to the top gave me an amazing view over the Tagus River 🌊. The nearby Monument to the Discoveries is also a must-see, with its impressive carvings celebrating Portugal's Age of Exploration. Belém is perfect for a day trip if you're into history, architecture, and of course, delicious food. Every corner of this place feels like a step back in time. #trip #Belém #Lisbon #Portugal #History #TravelDiaries

Well worth the journey out of the city. The Sanctuary of Christ the King was a real take a step back moment. I was in awe of the size of it and the outlook it had over the wonderful city of Lisbon was astonishing. This statue in Lisbon was inspired by the statue of similar meaning in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. The project was inaugurated in 1959 to express gratitude because the Portuguese were spared direct destructive effects of World War II. #photolocation #lisbon #christtheking #portugal

#August Travel Support Event I am taking a rest while looking at the Tagus River in Lisbon in a lazy afternoon. Isn't the time spent feeling the cool river breeze and the warm sunlight a truly indescribable time of peace and happiness? This kind of time is a necessary part of life.

I enjoyed exploring the square around the statue, taking in the breathtaking views and the serene atmosphere. The ambiance was peaceful, and I reflected on the architectural details and the spiritual message conveyed by the place. I enjoyed taking photos and capturing the beautiful moments.

The Sanctuary of Christ the King is a Catholic monument and shrine located in Almada, the southern bank of Tagus River in Lisbon. The Catholic statue was inspired by the Christ the Redeemer statue in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. The monument was built after World War II and inaugurated in 1959. This is probably the best place in Lisbon which offers stunning views of the 25 April Bridge which connects the city of Lisbon and Almada. The entrance ticket costs 8€ and allows you to take the lift to the top floor. From there you still have to climb a few flights of stairs to reach the observation deck where the statue of Jesus Christ is built. The viewpoint at the bottom of the monument also offers great views and walking on the ground surrounding the monument is completely free. 📍 Santuário de Cristo Rei Av. do Cristo Rei, 2800-058 Almada, Portugal #thingstodo #lisbon #portugal #monument #shrine #cristorei #tripblazers #almada #tagus #river #statue #jesuschrist #viewpoint

#dreamdestination Cacilhas – is a province on the southern bank of the Tagus River, which is opposite the city of Lisbon. This place has the charm of being a quiet suburban area. You can see authentic Portuguese-style houses, walk along the river from the port along the old warehouses, and look back to see the view of Lisbon and the Ponte 25 de Abril bridge with the Tagus River as the foreground. In addition, the seafood of the restaurants on this side is famous for its quality and more affordable prices than in Lisbon. After reviewing the information, we decided to spend the evening walking, watching the sunset and having dinner here. ⛴ Travel The easiest and most enjoyable way to travel is to take a ferry from the Cais do Sodré port on the Lisbon side to Cacilhas port. The journey takes about 10-15 minutes. There are boats every 7-15 minutes (depending on the time). You can also see beautiful views on both sides of the river without having to buy an expensive ferry tour. Very good value ✅ Attractions For the interesting tourist attractions on the Cacilhas side, there are the following: • Cristo Rei Monument (National Sanctuary of Christ the King) – This is considered the top attraction on this side. It is actually in the Almada area, but Cacilhas is the starting point for taking bus number 101 to Cristo Rei. Some people use the method of walking along the riverbank from the Cacilhas port to take the Boca do Vento Elevator. However, the latter is suitable for people who have a lot of time and plenty of leg power. • Rua Cândido dos Reis – This is the main street with restaurants and pubs on both sides. The atmosphere looks more local than the Lisbon side. The buildings on this street, although old, are colorful and charming without being artificial. • Igreja de Nossa Senhora do Bom Sucesso – If anyone goes during the day, this small blue church should stop by to visit. But we went in the evening, the church was already closed, so we missed it. But judging from the pictures in the media, the magnificence of the church's interior is not as good as the big churches on the Lisbon side (which is not surprising). For tourists with limited time like us, we felt that we should spend the day visiting beautiful churches and important places in Lisbon first, and then come here in the evening. It would be more worthwhile to visit this church. • Fernando II Gloria - The last Portuguese warship that sailed between Portugal and India. It is now open for visitors. If you have time and are interested, you should stop by. • Rua do Ginjal is a riverside street lined with old warehouses. Although these warehouses look dilapidated, they look real and magical. There is also street art on the walls here and there, which is another kind of cool. This street is paved and smooth, so you can walk and enjoy the breeze and the view along the river. When you are tired, you can sit and relax by the river without any fences. You can walk all the way to Ponto Final - a small restaurant with outdoor seating and a beautiful view that is popularly recommended by Lonely Planet. It is a great place to watch the sunset. Turn left to see Ponte 25 de Abril Bridge, turn right to see the old town of Lisbon bathed in the last light of the day, very romantic. For those who have a lot of time to travel, it would be interesting to take some time to visit various tourist attractions on the Cacilhas side. For those who have limited time, just stop by in the evening, enjoy the city and walk along the riverbank, find delicious seafood, and soak up the local atmosphere - it is a different charm from the big city of Lisbon.
