Lonely Planet review

At the top of Calçada da Estrela bulge the dome and belfries of the Basílica da Estrela. Completed in 1790 by order of Dona Maria I (whose tomb is here) in gratitude for a male heir, the church is all elegant neoclassicism outside and chilly, echoing baroque inside, with fabulous views from the dome.
