Praca do Comercio (Terreiro do Paco)
The Praça do Comércio (English: Commerce Square) is a large, harbour-facing square in Portugal's capital, Lisbon.
Facing, south, the Tagus (Tejo), the city square is still commonly known as Terreiro do Paço (Palace Yard), as hosted the Paços da Ribeira (Royal Ribeira Palace) until it was destroyed by the great 1755 Lisbon earthquake. After the earthquake, the square was completely remodeled as part of the rebuilding of the Pombaline Downtown, ordered by Sebastião José de Carvalho e Melo, 1st Marquis of Pombal, who was (chief) Minister of Portugal from 1750 to 1777, during the reign of Dom José I, King of Portugal. -
Torre de Belem
Belém Tower, officially the Tower of Saint Vincent (Portuguese: Torre de São Vicente) is a 16th-century fortification located in Lisbon that served as a point of embarkation and disembarkation for Portuguese explorers and as a ceremonial gateway to Lisbon. It was built during the height of the Portuguese Renaissance, and is a prominent example of the Portuguese Manueline style, but it also incorporates hints of other architectural styles.[4] The structure was built from lioz limestone and is composed of a bastion and a 30-metre (98.4 ft), four-storey tower.
