Castelo de Vide

Castelo de Vide is a whitewashed hill town in Alentejo where flowers spill over stone steps, water flows through ancient fountains, and layers of Jewish history linger quietly in narrow streets. A place for slow travel, reflection, and noticing what still endures

Castle of Lamego

High above the town, the Castle of Lamego waits quietly, offering sweeping views, deep history, and a slower way to experience northern Portugal. Reached by a gentle climb through old streets, this hilltop fortress is less about grandeur and more about perspective, silence, and the feeling of standing where centuries once watched the world pass by.
