July 6, 2022,Obidos - Portugal
For us, Obidos is the most beautiful town in Portugal. Unfortunately, it is now also very touristy, but still very authentic.
Here you can walk all around the city wall, provided you have a head for heights.

A walk on the well-preserved wall, with a floor about 1.20 m wide, gave us more impressions of the town. This path is not for …
