- Fatima - Begin your journey in Fátima, a renowned Catholic pilgrimage destination globally. The Sanctuary of Our Lady of Fátima honors the Virgin Mary’s apparitions to three shepherd children in 1917. As you stroll through the expansive esplanade, you’ll experience the tranquil and reflective ambiance that has drawn millions of pilgrims for over a century. Explore the Basilica of Our Lady of the Rosary, housing the tombs of the visionaries, and admire the contemporary Basilica of the Holy Trinity, among the world’s largest churches. Take a moment to light a candle, engage in prayer, or simply soak in the serene atmosphere of this profoundly spiritual site.
- Batalha Monastery - Next, visit Batalha, a delightful town dominated by the impressive Monastery of Santa Maria da Vitória, a UNESCO World Heritage Site and a prime example of Gothic architecture in Portugal. Constructed to celebrate the Portuguese triumph at the Battle of Aljubarrota in 1385, the monastery is a testament to exquisite stonework and craftsmanship. Inside, explore the Founders’ Chapel, the resting place of King João I and Queen Philippa of Lancaster, and the renowned unfinished chapels, symbolizing human ambition and artistic vision left incomplete. Take your time to wander through the cloisters and appreciate the detailed Manueline decorations that make this monument a true national treasure.
- Igreja Matriz de Santa Maria de Valega - Visit the Church of Santa Maria de Válega in the quaint town of Válega, near Ovar. Often referred to as a “canvas of tiles,” its façade and interior are adorned with vibrant, hand-painted azulejos. These colorful tiles illustrate biblical scenes and religious motifs, turning the building into a stunning mosaic of art and faith. As sunlight dances on the ceramic surface, the church radiates an almost magical beauty. Inside, the blend of colors, gold-leaf altars, and intricate wood carvings creates an enchanting and deeply spiritual environment.
