Here we are in Lisbon, Portugal. |
 |
|
|
The Tower of Belem. Built by order of King Manuel the first, in 1515. Its function was to defend Lisbon's harbor. |
 |
|
| The 25th of
April Bridge. It was inaugurated in 1966 with the name 'Salazar Bridge',
the dictator who had it built. It was later renamed to commemorate the
'Carnation Revolution' that happened on the 25th of April 1974, when the
soldiers placed carnations in the muzzles of their rifles as they led
the revolt against the world's longest dictatorship. |
 |
|
|
This is the Monument to the Discoveries. It is there to commemorate Portugal's many famous explorers and discoverers and adventurers like Vasco da Gama and Magellan |
 |
