Find a quiet pause—water, benches, and soft light in Jerónimos’ forecourt.

Forecourt pond and calm

Silence is a feature here—part of the design.


🪑 Pause Points

  • Benches near pond and garden edges.
  • Soft water sound as backdrop.
  • Early light or late glow for calm.

Forecourt—quiet reflection

One-minute stillness: count ten breaths, eyes on the façade; note what shifts.

[^quiet]: Mornings are gentlest.
