Belém Tower

Nice place to visit. good view, must try fresh pineapple juice. and try also try Portuguese pastel de nata.. taste good

Es mejor ir a primera hora. Es un sitio muy pequeño y se forma mucho jaleo para subir y bajar. Tiene 5 plantas y solo dejan estar a unos 15 por planta. Te tienes que esperar a que los de delante suban u bajen y hagan todo el recorrido y salgan. Es muy engorroso. Yo fuí a primera hora y aún así hubo lio. No me quiero imaginar a las 12 de la mañana.Esta impresionante torre fue construida en el siglo XVI como una fortificación defensiva para proteger la entrada del puerto de la ciudad. Su arquitectura única combina los estilos manuelino y gótico tardío, y cuenta con varios detalles ornamentales que reflejan la rica historia y cultura portuguesa. La Torre de Belem ha sido testigo de muchos acontecimientos históricos y ha servido como faro y prisión a lo largo de los siglos.

The first stop in Lisbon, head to the famous Bellen Tower, a landmark in Lisbon that looks like a fine piece of jade, from the bottom to the top of the tower, and you can see the beautiful scenery of the River Tejo.
