Tuk tuk tour around Lisbon

》The Cathedral of Lisbon 

Austere in appearance with a predominantly Romanesque style, although with the alterations made over the years, different styles have been masterfully blended which give it a very special character.

From the outside, the cathedral is protected by thick walls framed by two bell towers, which give it an appearance more typical of a medieval fortress than of a church. The façade still retains its 12th-century Romanesque style and its centerpiece is a central rose window.

Once inside, we'll find a temple that, in the midst of its austere character, has some decorative elements such as the fountain in which Saint Anthony of Padua was baptized, some 14th-century sarcophagi, and a striking 14th-century Gothic chapel.Lue lisää
