Fatima

Religious capital of Portugal, due to its power and mystical atmosphere, it attracts millions of pilgrims each year. The main square, twice the size of St. Peter’s Square in the Vatican, has capacity for 300,000 people.

Sanctuary of Fátima

The Sanctuary of Our Lady of the Rosary of Fátima is a place of pilgrimage that celebrates the memory of the apparitions of Our Lady to the three shepherd children: Lúcia de Jesus, Francisco and Jacinta Marto. In the Sanctuary you can visit the Chapel of Apparitions and the Church of Santíssima Trindade.

Little Shepherds’ Houses

About 2 km from Fátima, in a small village called ‘Aljustrel’, we can visit Casa da Família Marto and Casa de Lúcia.

Batalha Monastery

This architectural wonder resulted from a promise made by King João I in gratitude for the victory at Aljubarrota, a battle fought on August 14, 1385, which guaranteed the throne and Portugal’s independence. It is one of the most beautiful works of Gothic and Manueline architecture. A national monument, it has been considered a World Heritage Site by UNESCO since 1983.

Monastery of Santa Maria de Alcobaça

UNESCO World Heritage Site. Work on this 12th century monument began in 1178 and was completed around 100 years later. It is a notable example of Cistercian architecture, boasting the largest Early Gothic style church built in Portugal during the Middle Ages. Talking about the Alcobaça Monastery is also talking about the greatest love story in the History of Portugal, the tragic passion of D. Pedro and D. Inês de Castro, which is immortalized in that place.

Nazare

Located on the central coast of Portugal, a land of legends and traditions, of sea and fishing, of simple and hospitable people, Nazaré still maintains the authenticity that inspired writers and dazzled artists. The most famous fishing village in Portugal has beaches that offer lovers of surfing, bodyboarding, Tow-In and SUP the ideal conditions and spots to practice these activities. In 2011, the World record for the biggest wave surfed was broken – a wave of around 30m, at ‘Canhão da Nazaré’, by Garrett McNamara.

Óbidos

Beautiful medieval village, famous beyond its landscape and history for the famous ‘Ginja’ liqueur. Here you can stroll through the narrow Portuguese cobbled streets, see the castle, taste the “ginjinha” and artistic chocolates, enjoy the flower-filled balconies, the sidewalk, the castle walls and the architecture of the single-story houses. It is the ideal destination for a romantic walk. Rich in historical tradition, Óbidos is one of Portugal’s main jewels.
