Hello everybody!
I have prepared a special itinerary for day 5.
One of the most impressive monuments I have visited in Lisbon is the Mosteiro dos Jeronimos. It houses the Museu da Marinha, the Maritime Museum, and other various exhibits.
Next to the Mosteiro dos Jeronimos, you can find the Torre de Belem, a fortified tower, and a UNESCO World Heritage Site, as it was a crucial part of the Age of Discoveries.
Also, near the Torre de Belem, you can find the Padrão dos Descobrimentos, another monument dedicated to the Age of Discoveries.
Tip: Just across the street from the Mosterio dos Jeronimos, you can find a Starbucks. Right next to the Starbucks is THE PLACE to try Pasteis de Belem – Portuguese custard tarts which are amazing! Pasteis de Belem is also the name of the place which sells them here, and they have been making the tarts since 1837, following the original recipe from the Mosterio dos Jeronimos!
Your photos are bringing back so many memories! I visited Lisbon in December 2017, absolutely loved it! Luckily it was a very beautiful and sunny day when we went to Belem!
The sun brings out the best views out there! I am glad ypu enjoyed Lisbon!
Oh my god, I love Portuguese custard tarts, I can eat them all my life! Pretty nice way to spend your day 5 honeymooning in Portugal with beautiful sights and great food!
I miss the custard cakeeees! 🙂
I have to visit Portugal! So many historic towns and cities to experience and I’ve read a lot about these famous Portuguese tarts that must be tried.
If you get to visit the Lisbon area, check out my other honeymoon posts, there are a lot of beautiful places to visit.
I am heading to Lisbon this spring and cannot wait. I will check out the Mosteiro dos Jeronimos for sure. Cheers
If you have the time, I also recommend at least a day trip to Sintra. Visit Quinta da Regaleira and Palacio da Pena. There are some amazing views from above. Check out the other honeymoon posts for more ideas.
I missed Belem when I was in Lisbon and am so mad I did. Love your itinerary!
Thank you! I’m sorry you missed Belem, I had a great time there! Maybe you will return someday! 🙂
That’s such a great list! I will surely be making this my itinerary when I visit Lisbon!
Thank you! I hope you visit soon!
The Monastery is beautiful and well worth visiting. I loved the pastei de Belem. You can’t visit the area and not stop for at least one tart, but in my case, it was one to eat while I was there and a couple to take away as well. 🙂
I also took some for the road! 😁
This must’ve been a really cool visit! I have yet to visit Lisbon and I’m searching for honeymoon destinations so I’m bookmarking this. 🙂 Lovely photos, btw!
Thank you! I really think Lisbon and Sintra comprise a wonderful honeymoon destination! In case you want a beach holiday, I suggest you check out Algarve Beaches!
Truly, this is a great place for Honeymoon. I haven’t been to Lisbon yet, and will make sure to visit here soon. Your photos are stunning, you captured the place perfectly. Thank you so much for sharing this with us.
Thank you for your kind words!
You have taken stunning pictures of Lisbon which says all. The monument dedicated to Age of Discoveries must be great thing to see here.
Yes, it is much larger in reality! I am sorry I didn’t get a chance to photograph it, it was far away and it wasn’t open to visiting when we were there.
Lisbon seems like a great honeymoon destination. Mosteiro dos Jeronimos looks beautiful. I have heard so much about the city of Lisbon and longing to visit it soon.
I really hope you get to visit soon!
