Braga, Bom Jesus do Monte, Portal do Bom Jesus,
Portugal

Half Legua, the nascent of the URBE "Bracara Augusta", on Mount Espinho, partly covered with rocks and an inclined and higher plane on the city, we reach the resort of Bom Jesus, with all its architectural magnitude.

We began the visit at the base of the sacred mountain and a long vereda, straight, with 120 meters long, on 13 wide, which gives access to the porch, surrounded by a series of obelisks.

We arrived at the porch for two stone staircase in the circle cone, eleven and six steps, between two tanks without inscriptions or figures, and the frontalaranja to the elegant obelisk portico.

At the base of the slope, the ascensional path begins in the seven hundred granite gantry, dark granite structure, based on a platform, with access by ladder in range, flanked by two sources of diving, in niche back perfect and with tank semicircular. Regarding the porch, the map of Carlos Luis Ferreira da Cruz Amarante, 1/89, only refers in the legend, which and holds of two cunhals and a beautiful gable and is preceded by a circular square that will have four sources, which It never happened.

We have access to the 'New Jerusalem', the 'way-crucis', through the portico, made up of a slaughtered bow, entrance door in the stairs and in the sacred course.

And formed by two thin pillars of granite in Rusticata, with 7 meters high and 4 wide, which support an entire bow back, shaving with pyramids, booming vessels, and spherical ornaments. In the center and as a closing of the arch stands out the coat of seven castles of the Archbishop of Braga Lu. Rodrigo de Moura Leles, the greatest booster of the grandeur of the Bom Jesus, responsible for the construction, in 1723, of the first large staircase and chapels. From the interior an armillary sphere and the shot the Arquiepiscopal cross.

Outside the pillars two inscriptions. On the north side: "Jerusalem Sancta restored and reeded in the 1723 anno, on the source of the Sun. On the south side:" By the Illustrissimo Mr. Dom Rodrigo de Moura Telles Archbishop Prima, about the source of the Moon.
