Lisbon/Belém

Belém is a district in Lisbon, Portugal.

Get in
Take bus 728 to the west (direction Restelo), which follows the coast line and provides an express service with few stops. Or take the Cascais suburban train (line Cascais todos or Oeiras; the express trains don't stop in Belém) to Belém and walk to the attractions. Tram  to the west (Algés direction) follows the Junqueira residential line. Check the route map inside the tram: it helps to find the right station for the most famous of Belém attractions. The extensive bus network also serves Belém from various departure points around the city and can be less busy than the tram.

To reach the waterfront attractions such as Belem Tower and Padrão dos Descobrimentos from the town centre/tram line, you must cross over the railway line by the footbridges – there is one at the railway station and another near Belem Tower, and a tunnel by the Monument to the Discoverers.
