a view point that rises above the city walls
This place is a view point that rises above the city walls on Jardim da Carreira. From here you can see the Church of Bom Jesus at Calvary. It was originally a small chapel which was built and financed by a religious sister, but the current structure is the result of the expansion which was carried out by the Third Order of St. Francis during the 18th Century.
