What travellers are saying

The sculptures tell you the whole story from the lives of Christ and St. Bartholomew, King Pedro's patron... Especially interesting are the monks' living quarters: the Chapter House, the Kitchen with humongous chi...

Founded in the 12th century by the Cistercians it reflects the plain unadorned lines of their architecture, but its sheer size is impressive, it must have housed hundred of monks.

And the church is amazing especially the richly decorated tombs of the "star crossed lovers" Ines de Castro and Pedro I, worth a visit alone, but missing the monastery is sinful!

In 20 years are they going to say the complete opposite like how eating over 2 or 3 eggs per week was going to kill us? Now eggs are considered not so bad for us as once reported! Same with many, many studies! What should we believe and when? Whatever we do seems to be toxic or not at 20 year repeated studies! The whole world is toxic in certain levels at some time!!! Tells us that most things are based on some group mostly worried about money other than actual honest truth! Happy vaping to those smart enough to keep researching with a "grain of salt"! One way or the other we are going to die eventually! So pick your poison! Our polluted air is going to be our demise if not something else! Who takes much stock in these ever changing statistics anymore? You live and you die eventually from something. Concerning our eternal life in the next life is the most important part of this existence in my book! Seems like that is of the utmost importance by comparison!!!
