Describing my trip.
Normally, I and my wife make a trip every month and sometimes we choose a city, and others times rural areas. This month we decided to visit the city of Estremoz, and then last Tuesday we went there to spend the day.
Estremoz is one beautiful city located in the interior east of Portugal, in one province called Alentejo, 180 kilometers from Lisbon with more or less 8.000 inhabitants.
In this city there are two interesting museums showing various ojects collections, left by the moors when they occupied the city on the 12th and 13th century. But the most important to visit is the castle, where the population ran away to escape to enemy invasions.
The province is also known by the gastronomy, being the lamb stew and the goatling in the oven, the typical dishes. In this region there are also many marble quarries of great quality, exported all over the world.
