A monument to the famous Portuguese figures of the Age of Discoveries and the explorers of the world oceans in commemoration of Henry the Navigator. If you ever wanted to walk on top of the world - here you can.
Even though they discovered lands that were often already inhabited, they had the courage to set out on trips without knowing anything of what they could expect. They enabled the world to become mapped and charted, and their voyages would have both very powerful impulses for some people, while at the same time they had detrimental effects on others. When you approach the monument, you come across a large world map on the pavement, gift from the South African government in 1960. Here, you can see the corners of the world explored, in the 15th and 16th centuries, by various Portuguese adventurers, as well as the former Portuguese colonies that stretched from South America to Africa and the Far East.
