The tower of Belém is an old military construction located in the city of Lisbon, Portugal, it is also known as Torre de San Vicente, since it was erected in honor of San Vicente Mártir, patron of Lisbon. When it stopped serving as a defense for invaders in the estuary of the Tagus River, it was used as a prison, as a lighthouse and also as a tax collection center to enter the city.
It is located at the mouth of the Tagus River, in the neighborhood of Santa Maria de Belém, southwest of Lisbon. It was declared a World Heritage Site by Unesco in 1983.
And I had the joy of contemplating the sunset in this beautiful place.
Thank you so much for your submission! What a wonderful entry! Tomas
