Overview

During this adventure we will take you to know several places and monuments of enormous value. We start with the Sanctuary of Fátima, a place of worship for Christians that leaves no one indifferent. It was here that three humble children saw several apparitions and that to this day move thousands of pilgrims only through something so difficult to explain, Faith. Here we will also visit the Wax Museum where through various sculptures in this material we can get to know the life story of the 3 little shepherds. In the afternoon we will explore two historical monuments: the Monastery of Alcobaça and the Monastery of Batalha. Both impressive, were built with different purposes. In the first one, we will get to know the life of the monks in times gone by, all their daily lives without ever losing sight of the whole dimension of the building where they lived, in the second we will see an impressive monument that resulted from a historic battle for the Portuguese people.
