From the history of great explorations to the edge of Europe, and a breathtaking sunset.

Padrão dos Descobrimentos (Monument to the Discoveries) A place in Lisbon that never gets old, even if you visit twice. If you missed it the day before or want to take your time exploring, visiting in the morning is perfect. The monument bathed in soft morning sunlight offers a completely different vibe. It's also a great spot for a leisurely walk along the Tagus River and capturing memorable photos. Cabo da Roca The westernmost point of the European continent. On the map, it feels like "you can't go any further from here." With its rugged sea, cliffs, and strong winds, everything about this place is wild. It's about a 40–50 minute drive, but absolutely worth the trip. Taking a photo in front of the Cabo da Roca marker is a must! Standing on the cliff that stretches out toward the Atlantic Ocean gives you a strange thrill, as if you've truly reached the edge of the Earth. ⸻ Evening – Cabo da Roca Sunset, Absolutely Stunning If you stay at Cabo da Roca for sunset, you'll witness a scene where the sky turns golden, the sun blazes red, and the endless Atlantic Ocean below creates a view that's simply breathtaking. It was so beautiful that words couldn't describe it, and it was a humbling experience in the face of nature's grandeur. The strong winds only added to the romantic atmosphere.
