streets and how people leave find hidden gems where definitely will find a lot of them in um in Lisbon and apart from that there is a place called sintra it's outside of Lisbon very nice place to

relaxing by the Sea the colorful houses were originally built by the fishermen's and are now a popular photo spot for the visitors it's a peaceful beautiful place to enjoy the view walk along the beach and take in the uni [Music] atmosphere hello again and good morning from Porto this is our third day and the last day where we are going to visit Porto walk on the street taste their wine have some food and head back to Lisbon to prepare for the next day for the flight so we can clearly see the difference between the streets of Lisbon and the streets of Porto you can clearly see that the buildings are not really taken care of not that much same like Lisbon uh you can see that the city is basically totally under construction however still the architecture was such a nice thing to see and uh definitely it's very vibrant City also the weather was not really nice um it was so cloudy it was not cold around 13 14° very nice to walk outside but obviously imagine if you are in a sunny day when you are in Porto you definitely need to visit the Lelo Library which is one of the most beautiful bookstores in the world as I usually like to do I like to go not only on the Main Street would just like to walk around the areas that are not very very touristic and you know see how people leave this is how you find a lot of hidden Gams as well very good food very interesting look at the details so so beautiful the tiles very specific to Portugal Unfortunately today is not Sunny obviously it will look much nicer but it's still very nice and still the weather I think it's like around 14 13 14° so I think it's amazing to just explore look at this very cute cafeteria so nice very cute and cozy like a lot of places here very nice now as you can see the city looks like it's under construction literally however the buildings are very nice the architecture is very nice imagine being here and being sunny spe e and you can always stop by and have their special [Music] dessert and have a coffee also whenever you're tired very cute and cozy places unfortunately the church is closed but look at this beauty in the tiles such a beautiful Church in the afternoon we went straight away to Lisbon back cuz we had the flight in the next morning we had to be in the airport around 6:00 a.m. so we came back however the city was still very vibrant we chose to go for a f night

historic building located in the heart of Lisbon known for its unique architectural style and rich in history and because of that it's not primarily recognized as a hotel today but rather as a notable landmark with cultural and historical significance it was originally built in the 16th century the palace was designed by the architect jao de Castillo and it was named after his connection to the spice trade which was a major part of Lisbon economy during the Portugal Age of Exploration the city was a key hub for the spice trade between Europe Asia and Africa and the palasio dasas was likely a center for the storage or trade of spices and another valuable Goods brought back by the Portuguese explorers the building has seen various uses over the centuries including as a royal residence and a Merchant's house in the modern day the palaso esas has become more widely known for its cultural and artistic importance while it may not operate as a traditional Hotel it has hosted exhibitions cultural events and performers that celebrate Portugal's Rich Heritage including its history of exploration and trade all the rooms are completely different different decorated the furniture is
