This charming hamlet of white houses is enclosed in 14th century walls. When King Dinis married Isabella of Aragon in 1282, Óbidos was one of his wedding gifts.
Next to a radiant beach, in a large bay, this fishing town is a popular summer resort that has lost some of its original character, where you can still see fishermen wearing plaid shirts and women in countless layered skirts. Nazaré is also known by having the biggest waves in the world!
The Dominican monastery of Santa Maria da Vitória in Batalha is a masterpiece of Gothic architecture, famous for its Manueline elements.

About Lisbon
Lisbon spills down its hills to the Tagus estuary, a city of tiled façades, rattling yellow trams, viewpoint terraces and late, unhurried dinners.
The old quarters hold most of the charm. Alfama's tangle of lanes climbs to São Jorge Castle and echoes with fado in the evening, the Baixa's orderly grid runs down to the vast Praça do Comércio on the river, and Bairro Alto and Chiado mix bookshops and cafés by day with bars by night. Viewpoints such as Santa Luzia and Senhora do Monte frame red rooftops and shining water.
Top-ranked sights in Lisbon: Commerce Square (Praça do Comércio), Pena National Palace (Palacio Nacional da Pena), Alfama.
