발렌시아 데 알칸타라‬에서 가장 멋진 ‪9‬개의 동굴

이 아치형 저수지는 성벽 안에 있으며, 후기 중세 시대에 재단장한 명백한 흔적에도 불구하고, 당시 아랍 마을이었던 Ibn Maruán 마을을 위해 빗물을 저장하기 위해 아마도 9세기경에 지어졌을 것입니다. 인상적인 장소입니다. http://www.monumentos.gov.pt/site/app_pagesuser/SIPA.aspx?id=36148

A place to visit every month. It's wonderful.

The current pillory dates from the years immediately following the granting of the New Charter by King Manuel in 1512 and reflects his Manueline, albeit very rustic, style. The monument stands in front of the 16th-century district jail building and next to the clock tower, also from the 16th century, in the square that bears his name. It stands on a base with four octagonal steps and consists of an octagonal shaft set directly into the upper step, formed by five drums with mortar joints.

The Porta de Marvão is a medieval gate in the fortified town of Marvão, serving as the village's main entrance. The town is situated in the Serra de São Mamede mountains and offers panoramic views of the surrounding Alentejo region. Marvão's narrow streets are lined with whitewashed houses featuring Gothic arches and Manueline doorways. The well-preserved 13th-century castle is a focal point, offering visitors a glimpse into the town's rich history and strategic importance. The Porta de Rodão was built much later, in the 17th century, to bolster defenses during the War of Independence against Spain in the mid-17th century. A small parking area is located in front of it. Due to the narrow streets and almost complete lack of parking, driving through the gate into Marvão is strongly discouraged. Another fortified gate, providing pedestrian access to Vila Marvão, is located to the east. This one is also worth a visit.

A lovely little area in the middle of this picturesque, historic castle town. A beautifully maintained garden with a refreshing pond-like fountain in the lower middle section. The small hedges surrounding the flowerbeds, with their narrow patches of space between them, invite you to wander. The view of the castle and the surrounding countryside is breathtaking. I highly recommend a visit to this small but perfectly landscaped park.

The fortified town of Marvão, 12 kilometers from Quinta do Pomarinho, is also known as the "Eagle's Nest." It boasts a spectacular location on a granite cliff, atop one of the peaks of the Serra de São de Mamede mountain range. Completely walled, Marvão is situated in the Alto Alentejo region, near the Spanish border, which was once controlled from the village. The town of Marvão owes its name to Ibn Maruane, an Arab military leader who sought refuge here in the 11th century. He hid on Mount Ammaia and built a castle there, in the most remote and inaccessible spot he could find. Years later, the castle was transformed into a medieval fortress. Its location made it a strategic defensive position, nestled among hills with slopes to the north, south, and west, accessible only on foot from the village. For many years, Marvão was a municipality heavily and significantly involved in numerous military conflicts in the region. Today, Marvão is a rather sleepy town, but one where you can enjoy wonderful walks. More information can be found here: https://www.feriasemportugal.com/marvao

Marvão is dominated by its imposing and well-preserved medieval castle. The fortified walls embrace the entire village, enclosing a maze of narrow cobbled streets, white houses with red roofs and small flower-filled squares. The views from the walls are breathtaking, taking in a vast panorama of hills, valleys and, on a clear day, all the way to the Serra da Estrela mountain range. Marvão is a true open-air museum, preserving the atmosphere and architecture of centuries past. It is on the UNESCO tentative list of potential World Heritage Sites, and is an ideal destination for those seeking history, tranquility and spectacular scenery.

Roman footpath. Much uneven. Wear good walking shoes.
