Coimbra
Montemor-o-Velho
Some more shots of this very cool castle, its grounds, and the countryside
in which it overlooks...

 
 
The inside walls of this
castle have clearly
received less renovation

the the outside walls have
been renovated by the
condition of some of the
interior walls

The castle walls run
down the length of the hillside

Actively cultivated land
just beyond the walls
continues today as it
did 100's of years ago

My friend Antao: strong in
his character, powerful in his
knowledge, proud in his
heritage, a force this
world must come to
accept!
