Mosteiro de Santa Cruz
On the funicular going up to the university area
the Iron Gate to the main courtyard of the historic part of the university
Statue of King John
The doorway to King John's Library from the 18th century,
holding 30,000 books (no photos allowed inside)
The students all wear Harry Potter-ish uniforms. There were several sets of students in the plaza to answer questions and also to sell a book of photos since you couldn't take any interior photos. Each student receives badges according to their studies, where they are from, etc. They also tear their capes at certain ceremonies to signify different accomplishments.
On our way back down the hill, we visited the "new" cathedral which was started in 1598.
The World Cup began while we were in Portugal.
We saw lots of items commemorating Portugal's team.
