Admission is modest; check the official site for current price. Free or reduced entry sometimes applies on special mornings and with the Lisboa Card or combined Belém tickets, so compare options before you go.

About
Brze činjenice: Kad stojiš uz rijeku osjetiš slani povjetarac i primijetiš raskošne manuelinske rezbarije koje oduzimaju dah svojim pomorskim motivima. Unutrašnjost skriva neočekivane skulpture i male osmatračnice, a penjanje do krovne terase daje iznenađujuće panoramske poglede.
Istaknuto: Zamisli kamen hladan pod dlanom, isklesane konope i armilarnu sferu iz 1514–1520 po projektu Francisca de Arruda: sve je to ukrašeno na malim zaobljenim kulama kroz koje dopire slani miris rijeke. Malo ko zna da je kroz stoljeća služila ne samo kao utvrda i svečani prolaz, nego i kao svjetionik, carinska stanica pa čak i kao zatvor u 19. stoljeću, što toj kamenu daje pomalo mračan ali šarmantan osjećaj kad se popneš na terasu.
Insider tips
- Wear comfortable shoes, cobbles and narrow steps demand steady footing.
- Arrive at opening to beat tour buses and get unobstructed photos.
- Head to the river-facing terrace or the southwest bastion for the best sunset silhouettes.
- Buy timed or combined tickets online to skip queues and save on entry.
