Bom Jesus and Sameiro are outside the compact center; do not treat them as the next short stop.

This route connects landmark locations; museum, church and garden entrances can be gated or ticketed. Stay on public paths and pause outside if an entrance is closed. Check crossings, stairs, surfaces and opening hours for your needs.

Directions use mapped pedestrian access, checked on 2026-09-09. The route has not been walked or audited for step-free access. Allow time to adapt it on the ground.
