Óbidos, Portugal

The name "Óbidos" probably derives from the Latin term oppidum, meaning "citadel", or "fortified city". Rua Direita is the main street of the town and also the one that attracts most visitors. Historically, Rua Direita and Rua Nova have been the main streets of this dynamic and mesmerizing town and the quickest ways to reach the castle.

A Rua Direita é a rua principal da cidade e também a que atrai a maioria dos visitantes. Historicamente, a Rua Direita e Rua Nova têm sido as principais ruas desta cidade dinâmica e fascinante sendo uma das formas mais rápidas para chegar ao castelo.

 

P.S. I recently wrote a guest post at Mel Mann’s Blog, so feel free to take a look at Portugal Rocks!
