Lisbon Cathedral, a stone wall of faith that has stood for a thousand years

#JulyTravelSupport Tram 28 rattles past, and across a quiet alley, a building steeped in medieval grandeur comes into view. That is Lisbon Cathedral. Built in the 12th century, this cathedral is a living piece of Lisbon's history, having withstood earthquakes and invasions. The rustic Romanesque façade, and the rose window visible between the majestic twin towers, embody a quiet majesty. Stepping inside, under the stone ceiling, where light and darkness intertwine, the breath of those praying lingered for a long time. A space that speaks of solidity rather than extravagance, and faith rather than decoration. In the basement, early Christian relics overlap with Moorish traces, speaking of the many eras this place holds. #Portugal #PortugalEmotionalTravel
