The Torre de Belém, located at the mouth of the Tagus River in Lisbon, Portugal, is a symbol of the Age of Discovery and Portugal's maritime prowess during the 16th century. Built between 1514 and 1520 during the reign of King Manuel I, the tower served as a fortress to guard Lisbon's harbor and was a key defensive structure during Portugal's golden age of exploration. Its intricate Manueline architectural style, characterized by maritime motifs and ornate decoration, reflects Portugal's maritime heritage. Over the centuries, the tower has witnessed significant historical events and has been designated as a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 1983, standing as a testament to Portugal's rich maritime history and cultural heritage.
