Overview
Discover the roots of the "City of Mango Trees" on a tour of the Feliz Lusitânia Complex, the historic heart of Belém's birthplace. This itinerary delves into the 17th and 18th centuries, revealing the colonial heritage and grandeur of the Amazon of other times.
The landmarks of our journey:
- Presépio Fort: We start where it all began in 1616. We'll explore the archaeological site and enjoy a privileged view of Guajará Bay and the Ver-o-Peso Market.
- Museum of Sacred Art and Church of Santo Alexandre: One of the most important baroque ensembles in Brazil, where Jesuit influence and indigenous art intertwine.
- Metropolitan Cathedral (Igreja da Sé): The starting point of the Círio de Nazaré, it impresses with its neoclassical architecture and its vital importance to the faith of Pará.
- Casa das Onze Janelas: Former military hospital converted into a cultural space, offering contemporary art and one of the most beautiful sunsets in the city.
This tour is essential for those who want to understand the formation of Belém, from military defense to the religious traditions that still move millions today.
