Belém is the westernmost district of Lisbon, the Portuguese capital city. Lying near the mouth of the Tagus River, Belém played a key role in the great Portuguese Age of Discovery which began in the 15th century. It's home to some of the more notable landmarks in the city, including Belém Tower, the Jerónimos Monastery, and Belém Palace (the official residence of the President of Portugal).

Beautiful, culturally resplendent and immensely significant in Portuguese history, Belém is one of the jewels in Lisbon’s crown. Situated alongside the River Tagus, at the point where it meets the Atlantic, Belém is the place from which the caravels sailed on their voyage of discovery and in the 16th century life here revolved around the port. Nowadays it is an area of leisure and recreation where historical monuments lie cheek and jowl with modern museums, contemporary art exhibitions and busy cafes.
