The heart of Belém is a rectangle formed by the Tagus River with the Padrão dos Descobrimentos on one side and the architectural marvel of the Mosteiros dos Jerónimos on the other, with the Belém Cultural centre and the new Museu dos Coches as the final pieces.
The President of Portugal's palace is another important point in this area, as is the Lisbon marina, the infinity of green areas and the street and riverside cafes and restaurants.
The population diversity of those who live here includes a generational mix and residents who enjoy the serenity of morning walks and jogs along the Tagus. Here, the sea and a culture live hand in hand.
Belém does not have a metro station yet, but it has many trams (which go to Cais do Sodré and Praça da Figueira in the city centre) and a train station that will take you to Carcavelos in about 20 minutes, in addition to dozens of buses.
This is a perfect location for NOVA SBE students and workers in the line of Cascais or central Lisbon.
