Lamego cidade Histórica do Douro - Portugal
Cidade antiquíssima, datando já do tempo dos romanos, foi reconquistada definitivamente em 1057 por Fernando Magno de Leão aos mouros; quando os distritos foram instituídos em 1835 por uma reforma de Mouzinho da Silveira, Lamego foi inicialmente prevista como sede de distrito; mas nesse mesmo ano a sede do mesmo foi deslocada para Viseu, devido à sua posição mais central.
Foi em Lamego que teriam decorrido as lendárias Cortes de Lamego, onde teria sido feita a aclamação de D. Afonso Henriques como Rei de Portugal e se estabeleceram as Regras de Sucessão ao Trono.
É sede da diocese de Lamego (a única diocese portuguesa que não corresponde a uma capital de distrito), e no concelho são numerosos os monumentos religiosos, dos quais se destacam a Sé Catedral, a Igreja de São Pedro de Balsemão e o Santuário da Nossa Senhora dos Remédios, que dá também o nome a Romaria anual cujo dia principal é o 8 de Setembro, que é também o feriado municipal.
Conhecida também pela sua gastronomia, nas qual se destacam os seus presuntos, o cabrito assado com arroz de forno e pela produção de vinhos, nomeadamente vinho do Porto, de cuja Região Demarcada faz parte, e pelos vinhos espumantes.

See below for a full transcript:
Come with scenic and sail back in time to where Europe remains untouched.
Sit back as the newly launched Scenic Azure glides through Portugal’s magnificent Douro Valley, where centuries old architecture, traditions and lifestyles still prevail.
You’ll be met at the airport then transferred to your Scenic Space Ship in historic Porto, before being welcomed to your sumptuous cabin, your spacious and elegantly appointed home for the next 10 nights.
Next morning, step ashore for an included tour of the sights and unique treasures of this UNESCO world heritage city. Once part of the Roman Empire and still a major trading port, you’ll visit the old town then enjoy a ride on one of the city’s charming historic trams.
Back on-board everything is free for you to enjoy. Dine on the finest local and international cuisine, join the fun at sunset BBQ’s and cocktail parties on deck, enjoy nightly entertainment in the Panorama Lounge and have every whim catered for by an attentive and dedicated crew.
As you journey up the Douro, you’re welcome to do as little or as much as you choose. From laying by the pool with a cool drink, to learning about the local history, crafts and cuisine with daily lectures and demonstrations on-board, it’s up to you.
You’ll sail effortlessly past impressive terraced vineyards, ancient olive and almond groves, majestic granite outcrops and through dramatic steep valleys.
This is the home of Port wine, so you’ll visit renowned producers and their grand estates.
En route you’ll tour historic towns including picturesque Lamego, once home to the King of Portugal and featuring magnificent Baroque architecture. Travel through traditional farmlands to spend an unforgettable day visiting the ancient Spanish city of Salamanca, one of Europe’s great renaissance cities.
You’ll see and learn about Palaeolithic art in the Coa Valley. Sample the wine and hospitality at the world famous Mateus Palace. You’ll experience fine dining and cocktail parties ashore, including an unforgettable evening in the golden Arabian Room in the Palacio de Boisa. Here you’ll dine in a reception room usually reserved for visiting heads of state, while accompanied by a classical pianist.
Cruising back along the Douro, you’ll pass centuries old villages that seem locked in another time, and marvel at the massive locks and dams that have helped bring prosperity to the region.
Returning to Porto, you will discover its industrial past including a visit to the only original sardine canning factory still owned and operated by the same family for over a century.
On your last night you’ll sit down and share your unforgettable experiences over a magnificent farewell dinner, before enjoying a final breakfast on-board Scenic Azure in Porto, where you’ll say goodbye to your ultimate Douro touring experience.
Portugal in All-inclusive Luxury, So Wonderfully Scenic.
Visitar Leiria | Portugal
Um video sobre Leiria, um percurso pelo centro histórico de Leiria, a partir do seu Castelo. Leiria mantém ainda a sua traça medieval, e a sua Misericórdia e Casa dos Pintores são pontos importantes para conhecer o passado da sua comunidade Judaica. A Casa dos Pintores, um exemplar da arquitectura medieval, tem exposto o famoso Almanach Perpetuum, uma tabela da declinação solar, para os mareantes determinarem a sua latitude, criado pelo matemático Abraão Zacuto. O Convento de Sto. Agostinho, actual Museu de Leiria, onde existe importante informação sobre o passado de Leiria, acontecimentos e mitos. Recomendo vivamente a visita ao Moinho de Papel, conhecer a forma como antigamente se produzia o papel, num edificio industrial do séc. XV recuperado segundo o projecto de Siza Vieira.
