    • Favorite Thing: Pedro and Ines compose Portuguese Romeo and Juliet story. The legend is specially remembered in Coimbra, where they lived their love, and in Alcobaça, their burial place, whose details I explain in another tip. Commemorating 500 years since her death, great festivities took place in both places. A perfect replica of her tomb was used in a funerary parade to the monastery. But the most relevant details is the position of both tombs - go have a look and you will understand why.

     We visited Alcobaca last summer and enjoyed touring the monastery and walking around the town.    		Maurizioago Sun Jul 9, 2006 23:35 UTC
     I didn't know there was a castle in Alcobaca. I've been there twice. Ciao!
