Vasco (vash-ko) de Gama is the Portuguese celebrity and is buried in the Mosterio dos Jeronimos. Just down the road is a marble homage to the man who first rounded the Cape of Good Hope and made it all the way to India. The Torre de Belem is a really neat fortress right on the Rio Tejo built to defend the city of Lisbon against attack.
