Crater lakes, and food cooked in the ground
Cliff coves, a lagoon, and warm water
Terraced vineyards, budding, and a slow train
A flower festival, and levadas through laurel forest
Barefoot hooded penitents, in the Minho
Grapes still trodden by foot, in September
Light shows, port lodges and a river tree
Empty plains, walled hill towns, cheap good wine
Ericeira reefs to Nazare giants to Sagres
Baroque cities, medieval bridges and wild northern peaks
Tiled streets, port wine cellars, and a legendary bookshop
University city to Portugal's highest mountains
Terraces, quintas and a train that follows the river
Crater lakes, whales and volcanic wine islands
Street drinking, then silence for the fado
Levada trails, cliff pools, and a golden beach finale
Hill towns to golden coastal cliffs
One country, five cities, coast to mountains in 14 days.
