The capital of Portugal since its conquest from the Moors in 1147, Lisbon is a legendary city with over 20 centuries of History. Today, with the assistance of your guide, visit the Sha'are Tikva (Gates of Hope) Synagogue . In 1871 the Jews of Lisbon were granted permission to build a synagogue, a dream not fully realized until the dedication of the Shaare Tikva in 1904. The synagogue served as the centre of Jewish life in Lisbon thereafter; it was a sanctuary for the thousands of Jewish refugees who passed through Portugal during World War II. Follows a panoramic tour to Belem area with Discovery Monument and the XVI century Belem Tower. Next stop will be at a local pastry dated back from early 19 th century. Nowadays it serves an average 10,000 Pasteis de Belém (custard tarts) a day, a specialty made with a secret centuries- old recipe. Indulge in a special gourmet treat on one of their rooms covered with 17th-century tiles. You will take into a private visit to the XVI century Jeronimos Monastery , the incomparable monastery that exemplifies the Manueline style, a highly decorative form of architecture that emerged during the reign of Manuel I (1495-1521). For lunch (pre-set menu with wines) we suggest a lovely restaurant facing Tagus River where the fresh fish served is among the best quality offered in the markets of Lisbon. Passing the Rossio , the original headquarters of the Inquisition, reach the Largo da Graça , from where you can admire the magnificent city view, the Tagus River, and the “Seven Hills” of Lisbon. Continue to Porta do Sol , descending on foot through Alfama , Lisbon's oldest area The city's legendary seven hills will also seduce you into admiring characteristic mosaic pavements and dazzling tiled façades, and will reward you with strategically-placed viewpoints offering breathtaking panoramas over the city after a ride on a charming old tram. Explore the Alfama district, the Lisbon heart during Moorish times. The Moors have moved on, but the neighborhood retains an exotic atmosphere. Visit to the St. Georges Castle formerly a Moorish citadel. The castle boasts panoramic views of the city. You'll find yourself wandering through colorful XVIII century squares downtown and getting lost in the medieval maze of the Alfama district overlooked by an ancient castle. Jewish refugees from Spain settled here in the fifteenth century. The entrance to the neighborhood’s Jewish quarter, or Judiaría, was through the Arco de Rosario. Just inside the arch is a brick wall with a pair of decorative arched windows near the top - all that remains of what is believed to have been the quarter's synagogue. Up the winding stairway Just inside the arch is the Rua da Judiaría, the central artery of the former Jewish quarter. The typical medieval houses have a narrow door that was the family entrance and a wider one that often housed the place of business, such as a shop or workshop. At the end of the tor your chauffeur will take you back to your hotel. Short walk towards Olivier Avenida restaurant , a warm and intimate restaurant, where the décor brings us back to Marie Antoinette, for its laces and satin in pink and soft colors.

You'll see castles, fortresses, forests, and beautiful scenery. Sintra and its mystical hills dotted with fairytale palaces and extravagant villas have bewitched visitors for centuries. The Romans made it a place of cult moon worshiping and named it "Cynthia" after the goddess of the moon. They were followed by the Moors who also fell in love with the lush vegetation and built a hilltop castle, a palace, and several fountains around the town. Later it became the summer residence of the Portuguese royal family and attracted a number of wealthy aristocrats who built huge mansions and villas.

  • Início Da Romanização: São Salvador (Cadaval) E Sítio Do Castelo (Arruda Dos Vinhos)
    200 CIRA-ARQUEOLOGIA III – ATAS - CONGRESSO CONQUISTA E ROMANIZAÇÃO DO VALE DO TEJO Duas fortificações do final da Idade do Ferro/ início da romanização: São Salvador (Cadaval) e sítio do Castelo (Arruda dos Vinhos) GUILHERME CARDOSO ARQUEOLÓGO ASSEMBLEIA DISTRITAL DE LISBOA Resumo: O Castro de São Salvador localiza-se no município do Cadaval, Freguesia do Cercal, na par- te oriental da Serra de Montejunto, a partir do qual se domina um vasto território. Foi identificado nos anos 40 do século XX por Hipólito Cabaço. Os materiais re- sultantes das suas pesquisas, encontram-se guardados em Alenquer, no mu- seu que ostenta o seu nome. Entre 1989 e 1991, João Ludgero Gonçalves efectuou três sondagens que lhe permiti- ram perceber a técnica de construção da segunda linha de muralhas do castro e reco- lher vários materiais arqueológicos. Nos anos de 1996 e 1997, procedemos também a mais três sondagens arqueológi- cas, neste castro, onde foram identificados vestígios de estruturas num pequeno es- paço virado a sul, bem como um pequeno espólio arqueológico, que se encontra guardado no Museu Municipal do Cadaval. Mais a sul, já no concelho de Arruda dos Vinhos, entre 1988 e 1993, João Ludge- ro Gonçalves, procedeu a escavações arqueológicas no sítio do Castelo, localiza- do no extremo norte de um esporão bem próximo do Casal do Castelo, sobre o vale do rio Grande da Pipa. Sítio que já tinha sido identificado por Joaquim Gonçal- ves, quando prospectava estações arqueológicas com o fim de elaborar a Carta Ar- queológica do concelho de Sobral de Monte Agraço. Continuámos neste mesmo local escavações nos anos de 1996 e 1997, onde efec- tuámos três sondagens arqueológicas, que confirmaram os dados coligidos por João Ludgero Gonçalves anteriormente, ou seja, uma grande escassez de estru- turas, certamente devido à implantação do Forte do Paço, em 1809.

  • Discovering Sintra
    Discovering Sintra ABOUT Photo: Turismo de Lisboa Discovering Sintra Sintra, the Moon Hill, is a place full of magic and mystery, where Nature and Man have combined in such a perfect symbiosis that UNESCO has granted it Word Heritage Site status. One-day itinerary Morning Whatever your plan, a good suggestion is always to start from the historic centre, after an invigorating breakfast to prepare for a full day. On the main square, you will see Vila Palace with its two distinctive cone-shaped chimneys, which are useful landmarks for helping you find your way back to this spot. From the late 14th century, it was a summer resort for many Kings throughout the history of Portugal. Each room is decorated differently, and has its own history to be learned; its interior is also a surprise since it is a veritable tile museum, with examples from the 16th century, when tiles began to be used in Portugal. After a gentle stroll along the narrow alleys, past shops selling regional products, we suggest a visit to the Palácio and Quinta da Regaleira. This is a 19th century palace, although it looks older, boasting impressive decorations laden with Masonic references. Very close to the entrance to Regaleira, is Seteais, an 18th century palace, currently converted into an hotel. The gardens are worth a visit and from its belvedere you can see Pena Palace, Castelo dos Mouros (Moorish Castle) and the sea in the distance… Before climbing up the mountain, lunch would be in order in a good restaurant in town, or a picnic in Castanheiros Park, a picnic area halfway along Volta do Duche.
