- Ponte 25 de Abril
April 25th Bridge - Although often compared to the Golden Gate Bridge, this bridge is actually modeled after the other San Francisco bridge, the Bay Bridge, both having been built by the same company. It was completed in 1966, however, very extensive renovations were performed in 1999 so that a lower deck with 2 rail lines could be added. Aside from the addition of the deck itself, the height of the main towers was increased and a second set of main cables was added. - Waterfall Lake
You come out of the tunnel from the bottom of the Initiatic Well here, in the center of the photo, then take the stepping stones across the water to exit the area. - Initiatic Well
This "subterranean tower" is 27 meters "tall". The top is actually at ground level (where this picture was taken). From the top, you walk the spiral all the way down to the bottom. - Regaleira Tower
Overlooks the chapel and the main house and entrance. - Initiatic Well
This is at the bottom of the well looking up. At the bottom, there are multiple long and confusing tunnels. I picked one at random for my exit. - Waterfall Lake
After walking an unnervingly long dark tunnel from the bottom of the initiatic well, I came out here, at Waterfall Lake. - Sitting Bench
A small covered sitting area with wysteria growing over it and the ornate main gate in the background. - House and Chapel
On the left is the Chapel and on the right is the main house. - Mantle
