2. The Castelo de Tomar, or Tomar Castle, perched on a hilltop overlooking the town of Tomar in central Portugal, is a historic fortress and a testament to the influence of the Templar Knights in the region. Built in the 12th century, it was initially conceived as a key stronghold for the Templars. Adjacent to the castle is the renowned Convent of Christ, a later addition showcasing a mix of architectural styles from Romanesque to Gothic to Manueline. Together, they form a UNESCO World Heritage site. The castle's ramparts, watchtowers, and well-preserved walls make it a captivating visit, offering panoramic views of the surrounding landscapes and a deep dive into the Templar history and the age of the Portuguese discoveries.

About Lissabon

Lissabon stroomt van zijn heuvels af naar de Taag, een stad van betegelde gevels, ratelende gele trams, uitkijkterrassen en late, rustige diners.

De oude wijken bezitten de meeste charme. Het kluwen van steegjes in Alfama klimt naar het Castelo de São Jorge en weerklinkt 's avonds van fado, het regelmatige stratenraster van de Baixa loopt af naar het ruime Praça do Comércio aan de rivier, en Bairro Alto en Chiado combineren overdag boekwinkels en cafés met bars 's nachts. Uitzichtpunten als Santa Luzia en Senhora do Monte omlijsten rode daken en glinsterend water.
