Jardim da Torre de Belém

You need a bit to get there but the way is as beautiful as the view itself. If you wanna get into the building you need to queue. Couldnt be bothered so I enjoyed the time in front of the building.

This was a very cool place to visit. Lots of history behind it and the architecture was just stunning.

Was it worth the hour and a half line up to visit it? That's really up to you. I personally say yes because it's something worth seeing and experiencing at least once.

Such a beautiful place to visit ! Totally worth it. Try to go early as the line to get in gets pretty long. Once inside you can go into the 3 floors, the first one has just cannons, second floor has the patio area that you can walk into and get pictures, and the third one doesn’t have anything. It was the kings room.

Longest queue to get in ever. Even tho I had skip the line ticket the number of people with same ticket was in their 100s so there was still line anyways. Ended up admiring from outside. But the sea front there was so beautiful

On my must see list for our recent trip to Lisbon. It did not disappoint!!! Beautiful from land and sea! Watch out for people flying by on rented electric scooters they are often not paying attention and will definitely come out of nowhere.

Wonderful day in Lisbon enjoying the sights and sounds of the city. The castle looked amazing but the queue was pretty long and it was a very hot day so we just took photos, walked along the river, enjoyed looking around the little market where we bought some lovely cork gifts to take home and had delicious hand made ice lollies from a vendor by the park area. A thoroughly enjoyable experience

Not super special, but worth the visit. The tower looks amazing from the outside, especially due to its unique position in the water. Once you enter, the tower holds little surprises but does give a great view over the area. On the second floor, you are able to take a nice picture with the bridge in the background. It's free if you have the Lisboa pass, you just need to get it validated in the park nearby (no need to stand in line for tickets)

Please be aware that despite buying tickets in advance you gave to queue outside in the sun for well over a hour. So best to get your tickets on site so that if you are not happy to queue up you can decide to leave and not waste your money.
The queue continues inside, lounging around in the sun, end or cold because the tower can only accommodate single file of people given the very narrow stairs.
So again be prepared to spend over an hour lining up. Definitely not a place to bring babies and small children. Also not ideal for the elderly and disabled.
Viewing the tower takes a maximum 10mins, but, queuing up over 2-3hours.
The view over the river is beautiful and the fact that the tower was made to accommodate comforts for the king, meetings took place here and retention of the trap doors through which prisoners were thrown down as well as the line of cannons are pretty good.
Watching the sunset from here is also great and we did wade into the water full of fishes, to refresh our weary legs. Unfortunately a lot of hats get blown off here. So mind yours despite the sun and heat.
