Batalha Monastery

This exceptional architectural ensemble resulted from the fulfillment of a promise made by King João I in gratitude for the victory in Aljubarrota, a battle fought on August 14th of 1385, which secured the throne and guaranteed the independence of Portugal.
Nowadays, Batalha Monastery is considered a UNESCO World Heritage Site.

Óbidos

A medieval village surrounded by walls with its typical whitewashed houses and wrought iron balconies. Here you can have a taste of the typical ‘Ginja’ and then stroll along the maze of narrow cobbled streets.
