A Surprise Visit to Obidos

We left Lisbon in a private coach this morning destined for Coimbra. Zuzanna had mentioned that we would be making a surprise stop on the way. I do love surprises and this one did not disappoint. We had a delightful 2.5 hour stop in charming Obidos, an historical well preserved medieval walled city which you can walk on for stunning views of the town and surrounding landscape. The town is full of winding cobblestone streets and whitewashed houses adorned with flowers. Two other fun facts about this town are that it is recognized by UNESCO as a Literary City due to its vibrant cultural scene and literary events and it is where you can sample a shot of Ginjinhas, a liquor made from ginji, a type of cherry, which is served in a cup made of chocolate. Yum, yum! This is my kind of town💕Weiterlesen
