Beautiful, you know they lied to us once again and tried to say that these ancient castles were in the 1300s right up to 1800s, but there is no way in our world they build these on those days. Or should i say carved. You can see the technology, i learnt about this from watching Jon Levi and Flat Earth Britton.

I have not visited only two countries of continental Europe in my life - one of them is Portugal. If I manage to visit, this place will become the second in Portugal, I'll start with the islands

The pools of water, fountains & gardens were my favorite parts. The mist too gave a certain feeling. So relaxing to watch, along with the music. Thanks.
