This is a very nice church and if you appreciate this type of architectural landmarks then you might want to drop by. I enjoyed my short visit there. Just in front of it there is also a nice garden hence you can combine the two things. The church itself has a couple of small entrances. I didn't managed to walk around it due to people getting ready to a service (I guess) but very good spot.

Another impressive church, great bells. Nice park opposite, plenty of cool areas to sit. Easily accessible by the trams, the journey is fun too.

The church is in a quaint neighborhood of Lisbon with the tram 28 stopping right in front. One can visit the roof and the interior of the dome, very nice views from the roof for a 4 euro fee, children under 12 have free admission. It's a nice workout to climb the spiral staircase and beware that on the hour that church bells will ring. The church also features the possibility to see a nativity scene that includes various scenes from the gospel, it's a 2 euro offer to the old lady that provides explanations in multiple languages.

Absolutely stunning. Pay the 5 euros to climb to the terrace. Views looking down into the cathedral make the climb worth it.

Wonderful church with a huge breadth and depth of history about it. There was a wedding on when we went so we went to leave but ended up going up the spiral stairs to the roof. Amazing views of Lisbon and you can look down into the church itself from the dome. Would recommend going up
