Fountain and reflecting pond in front of Jerónimos

The forecourt frames Jerónimos with water and green—a visual buffer before and after carved intensity.


🌿 Why Linger?

  • Fountain arcs and reflecting pond.
  • Wide vistas for façade panoramas.
  • Benches offer soft landings for tired feet.

Fountain and pond—façade backdrop


Photo Cues

  • Use the pond as a mirror.
  • Wait for clean sky breaks; the façade reads better.
  • Include people silhouettes for scale.

Forecourt time is visual rest—a counterpoint to carved detail.

[^garden]: Paths and benches make a gentle interlude between visits.
