Batalha
Batalha Monastery it's another precious of the Manueline, a portuguese architecture style. Built to remenber one of the most important hapenings in Portuguese history. The victory on Aljubarrota Battle. Due to a Spanish atempt to conquer this territory with it's army that was 3 times superior in number.
It's an impressive building. It's dificult to keep the eyes away.
It's "unfinished chapels" once called "imperfect" for not having a built roof, are breath taking. And a nice ode to the "perfection of the unfinished". If you pay close attention you might be able to reach God. =)
Óbidos
Óbidos is another MG, Must Go place in Portugal.
It's a medieval village all surrounded by walls, very well preserved and a trully pleasure to walk around the walls or just get lost on the narrow streets and breathe that medieval ambiance.
I recomend to taste the "kind of cherry" (Ginja in Portuguese) Liquor on a chocolate cup and the ready made hot bread with meat stuff on it.
Fátima
Fatima, needs no words to describe it. If you want to visit it, that's because you know it. =)
