Belém is one of Lisbon’s neighborhoods with the most monuments and museums per square meter and you can see why…
After all, this is where Portuguese sailors set out to conquer the world.
So many landmarks to chose from, the extravagant Mosteiros dos Jerónimos, the remarkable Padrão dos Descobrimentos, the contemporary MAAT, the famous Cultural Center of Belém, the imposing Torre de Belém and so many more.
Saving the best for last, the irresistible Pastéis de Belém (custard pastries), well worth the wait!
