It is also here that <a href=\"https:\/\/lisbonsightsailing.com\/en\/vistas\/belem-tower\/\">Bel\u00e9m Tower<\/a> and the <a href=\"https:\/\/lisbonsightsailing.com\/en\/vistas\/discoveries-monument\/\">Discoveries Monument<\/a> have a strong presence. <\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Commissioned by King Manuel I, after Vasco da Gama returned from his trip to India, it was financed by the profits from the spice trade. Its decorative elements are full of symbols. Thus, the art of navigation, exotic plants and animals are clearly present in the sculptures that decorate the structure.  <\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In fact, this edification represents, more than any other, the romantic spirit and a key piece in the comprehension of the Portuguese soul.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Being above all the most powerful representation of the spirit of the discoveries and the navigators, it is common for visitors to fall in love with this Monastery.<\/p>\n\n<div style=\"height:40px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-interior-do-mosteiro\">Inside the Monastery<\/h2>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Its monumental interior takes us to another time. Its sparse light and the intricate forms of stonework give us the sensation of an enormous cave, shaken by the waves. The sensation of infinity is overwhelming and the world seems enormous and with so much to discover&#8230;  <\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It is here that you can find Vasco da Gama and Lu\u00eds de Cam\u00f5es, the maximum representatives of the Portuguese maritime epics.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This masterpiece was later connected to a great Portuguese poet &#8211; Fernando Pessoa. He was inspired by the symbolism of the Monastery to write one of his best known works &#8211; The Message. Today, as the final address of this great poet, the <strong>Jer\u00f3nimos Monastery<\/strong> has been internalized as one of the symbols of the nation.  <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Jer\u00f3nimos Monastery is a 16th century Portuguese architecture masterpiece classified as a national monument.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":7,"featured_media":38616,"parent":0,"template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[390],"tags":[1394,1009,1093,1095,1050,1395,1094,1034],"localidade":[1505],"class_list":["post-39749","vistas","type-vistas","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-sights","tag-barco-en-3","tag-catamaran-en","tag-lisboa-en","tag-rio-en","tag-sailing-boat","tag-tejo-en-2","tag-passeio-en","tag-yacht","localidade-lisboa"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v28.1 (Yoast SEO v28.1) - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-premium-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Jer\u00f3nimos Monastery - Lisbon Sight Sailing<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Discover the Jer\u00f3nimos Monastery, from a completely unique angle, during an unforgettable sailing tour on the Tagus River.
