If you go to Lisbon, you need to go to Belem. Not for the monument and not for the old churches, you need to go for the pasteis de Belem! There is a cafe there that makes pasteis de nata, and they are some of the best you will ever have! When you get them fresh and warm, oh man!
***My mom gave me some more info on what all this is, so this is what she told me:
In the Belem video, the monument is The Monument to the Dicoverers. It has Prince Henry the Navigator at the front, and lots of other people (not all directly related to any "discovering") around the two sides. As you turned your camera clockwise, the big building is the Cultural Center where they have concerts. The Cathedral is Jeronimos. To the left of it there's a great Naval museum.
