Are you fond of intricate architecture? Then, visit Jerónimos Monastery, only a 20-minute drive from this hostel. A UNESCO World Heritage Site, the monastery is an example of the Portuguese Late Gothic Manueline style of architecture. Its structure started in 1501 and was completed a century later. King Manuel I occupied the monastery with monks whose sole role was to pray for the King’s eternal soul. It also served as a spiritual source for the navigators and sailors departing from the nearby ports to discover lands around the world. Do you notice the ropes and other maritime elements incorporated in this richly ornate architecture? This is a characteristic of the Manueline style.
