The Torré de Belém or Belem Tower is Lisbon, Portugal’s most famous landmark. It stands as the city’s most renowned symbol situated along the Tagus riverbank. The Torre de Belem is a small fort that was constructed in the centre of the Tejo Estuary to guard Lisbon from seafaring raiders. For such a trivial role the fort was lavished with beautiful and intricate details that include North African Moorish styled watchtowers, shield shaped battlements and the first European stone carving of a Rhinoceros.
