Take a trip to Jeronimos Monastery on your Portugal Vacation
Jeronimos Monastery is a popular tourist attraction that draws crowds to soak in its rich history. Inside the monastery lies the final resting place of the legendary explorer Vasco de Gama. Crafted by the ingenious Portuguese architect Diogo de Boitaca, the monastery stands as a tribute to Vasco de Gama's daring voyages to India.
The Church of Santa Maria is unlike any other church in the world as it boasts a single nave supported by six intricately carved columns, creating an illusion of endless space. And don't overlook the monastery's two-story cloister and prepare to be dazzled by its grandeur and symbolism, showcasing the awe-inspiring Manueline style. Remember to dress respectfully, covering shoulders and knees, as you explore this sacred space.
