Lisbon runs into the medieval dusk under the Belem Tower

Belem Tower is a symbol of Lisbon Standing by the Tagus River for 500 years The tide is surging, full of momentum . Shining under the setting sun The gentle light is like a fairy tale filter Waiting for a magnificent sunset in the time travel . In front of ancient ruins I often find it difficult to appreciate the gap of years It's not easy to feel the connection with the builder But that afternoon sitting on the bench At some moment rushing towards her As if traveling back to the Age of Great Navigation Witnessed an epic ultimate romance . The Tagus River flows into the Atlantic Ocean, forming an inland sea, It is one of the most magnificent natural ports in the world, Famous for the great navigators who set sail here in the past. The Belem Tower, accompanied by the daily rise and fall of the tide, Witnessed the glory that Lisbon once had, Now it has been turned into a museum, and it was listed as a World Heritage Site in 1983. . Speaking of the history of the Belem Tower, It's more like a brief history of human adventure: The starting point of Portugal's great geographical discovery, the witness of pirate-style adventurous sailing. At the beginning of its construction in 1500, it took on the military fortress guarding the gateway of Lisbon. So its shape is more like an elegant fortress, We are attracted by the gorgeous appearance of the Belem Tower, From east to west, from backlight to smooth light, we took enough photos, Until the blue sky and the blue sea are dyed red by the sunset.
