Mi piace guardare il cielo riflesso... si vede in modo diverso. Le nuvole sembrano nuotare eppure sono incommensurabilmente più lontane. E' un inganno della mente che ci aiuta a comprendere come il mondo sia una illusione, una percezione della mente, sebbene molto persistente. Come scriveva Albert Einstein

The south portal of Lisbon’s Jerónimos Monastery stuns with its breathtaking Manueline detail—flamboyant, sculptural, and impossibly intricate. Rising against a flawless blue sky, every statue, arch, and column tells a story of Portuguese exploration and devotion. Commissioned in the early 1500s by King Manuel I, this UNESCO World Heritage Site was built to honor Vasco da Gama’s voyage to India. Standing before it, you feel dwarfed by history, art, and craftsmanship. The red curtain in the shadowy doorway adds a theatrical touch to an already dramatic entrance, inviting you into the cool, hushed splendor of the monastic interior beyond.
Parked proudly in front of Lisbon’s awe-inspiring Jerónimos Monastery, these whimsical tuk tuks and vintage-style tour cars offer a playful contrast to the solemn grandeur of Manueline architecture. With its ornate façade and towering dome, the UNESCO-listed monastery stands as a beacon of Portugal’s Age of Discovery, while the quirky vehicles bring modern tourism alive with energy and color. It’s a scene that feels both timeless and current—ornate stonework framing open-air transport ready to zip through the sunlit streets. A collision of eras, textures, and tones, this moment captures the eclectic beauty and layered history of Belém.
