Mosteiro de São Vicente de Fora

This guide to Mosteiro de Sao Vicente de Fora in Lisbon opens with Catherine of Braganza, the Portuguese princess who introduced tea to the English court in 1662 and later returned home to serve as regent of Portugal. It leads into the royal pantheon behind these walls, where generations of the House of Braganza lie in marble tombs engraved with gold crowns, and traces her path back to her father's resting place. Save time for the cloister on your way out, lined with blue-and-white tile panels.
