My guide said that the dominican abbey of Santa Maria da Vitória is a UNESCO Heritage site and a masterpiece of Portuguese
gothic architecture, famous though for Manueline elements. We found there the tomb of João I and of his English wife Philippa of Lancaster, as well as of Henry the Navigator, one of their sons.
I found a place that I've seen before, that amazed me with its stained glasses and the colors reflected on the ground of the church.
