The fact that you took the time to find out the history of each place you visit is commendable. Not many people do that type of homework. Congratulations. Well done.
Thanks for your comment, Carlos! Indeed, most of the travel videos on RU-vid show just nice views without any idea of what is shown, and this feels frustrating. We hope that you enjoy our other videos as well.
cities named "White Castle" are so because their castle had whitewashed rubble walls, like most castle and town walls that weren't made of cut stone. So you have White Castle or Castell Gwynn in Wales, Weissenburg in Bavaria, Belgrad in Serbia and Fehérvár in Hungary, Gyulafehérvár in Transylvania - which all mean "white castle".
Very interesting! For some reason, the channel is very hard to find through search by name, even though I have been subscribed for a long time. Perhaps if I write more comments, youtube will learn to show it to me :)
Thank you for asking, Lori! We spent in Portugal the time of our son's school winter holidays. We arrived on December 27, 2017, and left on January 11, 2018. Because the time was limited, we explored several places in a day. For example, Idanha-a-Velha was visited on January 1 among six other towns seen on that day. So, it might take quite a bit of time to share all the impressions -:)
I saw your RU-vid channel, your content is very good but your subscriber views are very low. I see your videos have SEO issues. SEO solutions can increase your channel's subscriber views and your channel will appear on RU-vid's top. Let me know if you need any help.
I a sephardi from London travelled from Lisbon with friends to be in Belmonte for the day o f the dedication of Beit Eliyahu synagogue in Belmonte.For me it was a deeply touching visit being there for such a sacred occasion.
10:50 "The original Templar structure" in Monsanto was itself built on top of the original pre-Roman _Castro,_ which the Romans built an _Opiddum_ over, only for the Suebi and Visigoth to occupy it until the Muslims took it from them, before finally D. Afonso Henriques gave it to the Templars, so, no harm done there that somebody else came along and used the stones, the original Lusitani structure was long gone by then but not the people. Great video!
I’m very proud to be Portuguese from a nation born for Christ to spread out the true gospel of his true church the Catholic Church where Jesus is the corner stone of the first rock given to Simon Peter to built materially speaking but the connection is the holy Eucharist where the heavens and earth meet, all glory and honor is yours my Jesus you’re the truth the light and the way to the fathers house, praise to you lord Jesus Christ,king of endless Glory 🙏❤️🙌🇵🇹🇺🇸
This is one of the most interesting and charming videos about Portugal that I've seen in a long time, because you actually took trips off the beaten tracks, outside touristy areas and cities. Thank you for sharing. ❤️ from a Portuguese digital nomad currently in Reggio Calabria.
Beautiful place. Just Gorgeous. That massive granite Cathedral in the Historical centre of the city,its breathtaking. PS: Spain didint "gifted" Brasil to Portugal,because the King D.Joao ll already knew that Brasil was there,when they signed the treated. In the map of the "Tratado de Tordesilhas" in 1494, you can see perfectly the Land that its called Brasil today. Thats why D.Joao ll insisted in changing the line of separation,and thus increasing the distance where the Portuguese Captains could go. To make sure the land that already was knew by Portuguese Sailors,belong to Portuguese Domain,in a short time. And in the 1st of April of 1500,Pedro Álvares Cabral, officialy "Discovers" Brasil. And the rest is history.
A lovely video. Feels like a tour guide is telling about the history of the city while on a walking\driving tour through the city. Would love to visit Portugal sometime...
Reminds me that sometimes it makes sense to explore beforehand, exactly which sights it would be interesting to see in a place. I totally share the habit of not doing that as well!
