CASTLE OF PALMELA: BEST PLACES TO GO AROUND LISBON, PORTUGAL | WHAT TO VISIT LISBON VLOG#13 (4K)

Once again I'm taking you out of Lisbon's city buzz! Just 40 minutes drive from Lisbon there's the Castle of Palmela - a defensive structure older than the Portuguese Nationality, with mesmerizing views over Troia Peninsula, Arrábida Natural Park and the city of Setúbal!

Welcome to my second travel vlog about things to do / places to visit around Lisbon!

My friends and I have adventured ourselves through a Windmill Route at Serra do Louro, a hike that allowed us to learn about the ancient history of bread making in Portugal and visit archaeological remains from the 2nd millennium B.C and Roman Times! Anyway, while we were hiking I couldn't take my eyes off the Castle of Palmela so we went there to explore it a little bit and film for you :)



We started our walk in Palmela city center, one of those places worth visiting around Lisbon... but I could barely stand on my feet so we've decided to drive uphill until we found the castle!

I will continue sharing the best of Portugal with you in future videos, so if you're enjoying my work so far... stay tuned for more!

My goal is to inspire your future trips through Portugal, and clarify the best places to visit, things to do, places to stay... among other important details connected with traveling in my country. I am a local, working full-time as a tour guide and travel consultant for 8 years now, so expect some honest feedback and accurate information about these places :)

If you're looking for a trusted guide to accompany your trip throughout Portugal, feel free to contact me anytime!

Enjoy this video and see you soon!
