Hello everyone!
The next point on the map of portugal and another delightful place is Valença.

Being in the spot, I noticed a huge difference between the architecture located west of the city (nearby villages) and architecture in the center. Multi-story buildings caught my eye.
I went to the older part of the city, enclosed within the old fortifications.
