The Navy Museum in Lisbon, also known as Museu de Marinha, is an emblematic place that immerses us in the rich Portuguese maritime history, especially during the Age of Discoveries.

The Jerónimos Monastery was declared a World Heritage Site by UNESCO in 1983. Its name in Portuguese is Mosteiro dos Jerónimos.

Designed by the architect Diogo de Boitaca, the construction of the Jerónimos Monastery began on January 6, 1501 and was completed at the end of the 16th century. The predominant style of the monastery is Manueline and it was built to celebrate the return of Vasco de Gama from India.

Designed in the Manueline style by architect Juan de Castillo, it was commissioned by King Manuel I of Portugal to commemorate Vasco de Gama's fortunate return from India. It was founded in 1501 on the enclave of the Ermida do Restelo in what was the Restelo beach, a hermitage founded by Enrique the Navigator, and in which Vasco de Gama and his men spent the night in prayer before leaving for India. . The first construction phase of the new church began in 1514 and it was extended and modified until the 20th century. It was financed thanks to 5% of the taxes obtained from oriental spices, with the exception of those on pepper, cinnamon and cloves, whose income went directly to the Crown.
