🧭 Monument to the Discoveries 🧭





Two facts about me: I'm Portuguese and I love visiting a place with a good story. That's why my favorite monument is Padrão dos Descobrimentos, the monument to the discoveries, a demonstration of the Portuguese involvement during the period of the discoveries that led to the expansion of the European geographical knowledge. This epic monument is a portuguese landmark, filled with symbolism, that pays tribute to the various portuguese navigators, cartographers, warriors, colonisers, missionaries, chroniclers and artists that contributed to these explorations.
