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.
Portugal might be small now, but the Portuguese have been masters of the world centuries ago. It is the motherland of famous discoverers like Vasco da Gama and Magellan -– names which still now inspire people anywhere. They were the daring characters who did not mind to sail unknown seas to unknown destinations all over the world. Look at the world map and you will see their names given to straits, channels, bights and bays across the world. Apart from explorers and navigators, the monument also represents famous Portuguese writers, painters, chroniclers, scientists, and missionaries.
