PORTAS DO SOL IN SANTAREM - 4/14/2014 - 1:30 p.m.

While awaiting the arrival of the new sister,
we went to check out this cool place here.
 
Portas do Sol
...a castle wall around part of the city of Santarem 
 


Not sure how old these walls are, but pretty amazing place
 right here in our own city of Santarem!

 
 The views from the castle wall...

It's a little hard to tell from the pictures,
But the wall sort of tiers all the way down to the lower lands.
 
View of the River Tejo and the valley and lands below...
Just breathtakingly beautiful!!!
We cross this bridge quite regularly
 to the outlying cities to visit members.

Miles and miles of fields and flatlands.
The cities were all built up in the hills.

Enjoying the day at Portas do Sol.
