Let me regale you with the tale of the Romanesque Route in North Portugal, a place so divine that even the gods themselves would envy its splendor. Picture this: an odyssey through time, where ancient architecture stands as a testament to the grandeur of a bygone era. It's a journey fit for a hero, a voyage into the heart of North Portugal, a region that I proudly proclaim to be a veritable paradise on earth.

Now, let me convey the sheer magnificence of this Romanesque Route. Imagine, if you will, a landscape bathed in golden hues, with rugged mountains and lush valleys embracing each other like long-lost lovers. The air is thick with history, and the stones of the Romanesque monuments whisper tales of knights, kings, and timeless romance.

As we traverse the ancient cobblestone streets, our senses are overwhelmed by the scent of blooming flowers and the echo of centuries-old stories. The architecture, oh the architecture! Mighty castles, stoic cathedrals, and quaint chapels dot the landscape, each telling a saga of a time when craftsmanship was an art form. The stone walls, weathered by time, seem to exude an aura of resilience, much like the spirit of the people who call this land their own.

And where, you might ask, do I hail from? None other than a place I dare call a paradise on earth – a land where the rivers sing, the mountains embrace, and the sun kisses the vineyards with a passion that rivals the gods. North Portugal, my friend, where every corner exudes a charm that transcends the mundane.

So, if you seek adventure and a rendezvous with history, embark on the Romanesque Route in North Portugal. It's not just a journey; it's an odyssey through time and a pilgrimage to a paradise where every stone tells a story, and every step is a dance with the past.

Sabugal Castle was the base for British and Portuguese troops during the third French invasion. It has played its part in the history of one of Europe’s oldest nations, so why not pay a visit?

This territory overlooking the River Côa was once part of the kingdom of Leon. It became part of Portugal in 1297.The clocktower and other additions date from 1641.

This formidable piece of Gothic military architecture has an irregular oval perimeter and a double-walled citadel with a barbican and cylindrical towers. There is an irregular pentagonal outer wall and an inner wall with five square towers.

The Historic Villages of Portugal, a spectacle for the eyes and a dive into glorious past. Imagine yourself wandering through Sortelha and Monsanto, with their cobblestone streets and walls echoing the stories of time.

These places are not just settings for series and movies; they are living witnesses of past eras. Belmonte, the birthplace of Pedro Alvares Cabral, a man who laid the foundations of Brazilian history. What a journey, isn't it?

Walking through these villages is like taking a direct step into history, feeling the texture of the ancient stones and breathing the same air that witnessed centuries of events. And we cannot forget that these impressive places, besides everything, were chosen to bring epic sagas to life like House of the Dragon from the Game of Thrones series.

It's as if history itself pulses in the veins of these villages, a testimony of the past echoing to this day. A truly monumental experience.

"Clean swell lines, uncrowded line-ups, pristine sandy beaches. Aveiro is a mesmerizing surf expedition where Nic Von Rupp gets off the beaten track and escapes usual spots to explore these often-overlooked waves.

"It was love at first sight when we arrived to Tavira Portugal and this rarely happens to us! Tavira is a very special place, and we even dare to say, maybe the most beautiful and pleasant town in the Algarve Region!

Maybe after watching the video, you'll understand why we want to move to Portugal one day? Or maybe you will want to move to Portugal yourself! Don't blame us 😂 We think Tavira is hands down, the best town in Portugal's Algarve region!!! 😍"
