A completely preserved city wall with battlements. Only the bus tourists make the whole thing a bit annoying. Impressive in any case.

For us, Obidos is the most beautiful town in Portugal. Unfortunately, it is now also very touristy, but still very authentic.
Here you can walk all around the city wall, provided you have a head for heights.

Pretty little town with a surrounding city wall. You shouldn't be afraid of heights and sturdy shoes are recommended if you want to walk around the city on the city wall. People still live in the city, it wasn't crowded, but there are still enough souvenir shops and restaurants.
Highly recommended for a trip.
Parking and city/city wall free of …

It is believed that Óbidos was built by the Celts in c. 308 BC. Although an attempt was made by the Phoenician people to take control, which was unsuccessful due to resistance from the Celtic people, these same people ended up giving in to the Romans, who conquered this “land of the first order”.
