We visited Belem (yet again) this time to check out the Torre de Belem and the Maritime Museum. The tower was interesting, if one doesn’t mind traipsing up and down claustrophobic spiral staircases. What really caught our attention, though, were the actual barges of the Portuguese royal family that were housed in the maritime museum. Some of the boats here are from 1790, and carried all manner of princes and queens.
