EDITORS COMMENTS
The 12th century mighty Templar castle of Almourol stands proudly atop a rocky island, basking in the warm hues of a breathtaking sunset. Located in Portugal, this architectural marvel is a testament to the rich history and heritage of the Knights Templar order. As dusk settles over the Iberian Peninsula, the citadel comes alive with vibrant colors that illuminate its stone walls and watchtowers. The fortress exudes power and strength, serving as an iconic landmark for all who visit. Perched on a hilltop overlooking the Tagus River, Almourol Castle transports you back in time to medieval Europe. Its fortified walls tell tales of battles fought and victories won by knights who once called this place home. The moorish influences are evident in its stonework, adding an exotic touch to this otherwise Western European stronghold. As night falls, the castle becomes even more enchanting as it glows under gentle illumination. Visiting Almourol Castle is like stepping into a fairy tale. Its scenic surroundings and picturesque setting make it a popular tourist attraction for travelers seeking both history and beauty. Mauricio Abreu's stunning print captures not only the grandeur but also the tranquility of this ancient monument at twilight. It serves as a reminder of our shared past and invites us to explore further into Portugal's fascinating historical sites.
