5 Must Visit Places In Portugal

in #steemfest9 years ago

Since Steemfest 2017 is going to take a place in Portugal, Lisbon I decided to make a post about Portugal. Some of the places won't be in Lisbon, but why not to use an opportunity? If in Portugal you should definitely visit at least few of them.


What you should know about Portugal before visiting it:

  • Located in south west of Europe
  • Capital city: Lisbon
  • Currency: Euro (EUR) (€)
  • Drives on right
  • Timezone: WET/GMT (UTC)
  • Official languages: Portuguese
  • Emergency number: 112

1. Algarve

This place is about 173 miles (278km) away from Lisbon, but it's definitely worth your visit. Amazingly beautiful beach, cliffs and blue water that look wonderful at any time of the year If I will make it to Portugal, I will look for every chance to visit this place.


2. Madeira

If talking about heaven on earth. I would think of this island in Portugal. There's everything... Whales, dolphins, cliffs, blue water, beach, mountains..


3. Peniche

Just wonderful! A city surrounded by Atlantic Ocean from three sides. View so unique. Where else you can find something like this? Just look at the picture and video below.


4. Porto

During day this city is like from a fairy tale and on evening it turns in to a magical city of love. Definitely worth visit.


5. Terceira Island

Located in Atlantic ocean. This Island has a volcano which is very good platform for incredible view of the ocean and Island itself.


Please note, I realized this only when I was finishing this post and was looking for any mistakes. Steemfest is going to take place in November, right? And I don't think that it will be that warm to fully enjoy some of the places since I included beaches. Well at least you could enjoy the view.. I hope so..


P.S I don't want to force you or anything, I just want to let you know that I started saving money for steemfest 2017. I'd really like to go, since I wasn't able to do it last year. Thanks for your understanding!


P. P. S this type of posts are note for my self and that's why I continued. Some of places I plan to visit and some I have already visited. Anyways, thanks for reading!
