Câmara de Lobos municipality It was this traditional fishing village, situated five kilometres from Funchal , which inspired Sir Winston Churchill to paint its lovely surroundings. The village was given its name by the explorers João Gonçalves Zarco and Tristão Vaz Teixeira because of the shape of its bay and the many Mediterranean monk seals (‘lobos’) living there at the time
Thank you for your visits comments and favs! :-)
Situated close to Monaco, lies the very attractive and picturesque medieval village of Eze.
Eze is perched like an “eagle’s nest” on a superb cliff located 427m above sea level which enables the village and its light ochre church (Notre Dame de l’Assomption built in 1764) to be seen from afar.
It was during his stay on the Côte d’Azur that Frédéric Nietzsche discovered the village which later inspired him to compose the last part of his work “Thus Spoke Zarathustra”.

The historical village of Piódão is reminiscent of a crib because of the harmonious way in which its houses are arranged in the form of an amphitheatre.
The entire village of Piodão is made of almost entirely of schist, including the roads and paths between houses.

This village is located in the protected area, Tyresta National Park near Stockholm. A great area to visit, with forest, lakes, houses, and traditional farmers.
There are old stables and barns, residential houses from 18800s, but the village was inhabited in early Iron Age.
In the forest are parts with pristine pines, several hundred years old.
And this is only 20 km from Stockholm. All is free to visit.
You can hike here , it takes a day to go through the area, camp for a night or sleep in some of the small wind shelters built at any of the lakes.

Megalochori in Santorini: Megalochori is one of the most traditional villages of Santorini. It lies on a hill and is characterized as a labyrinth of steep alleys and streets. Still untouched by tourism, Megalochori keeps its beautiful architecture with the picturesque square, the narrow streets, Neoclassical mansions and the typical cave houses of Santorini. It also offers a nice mix of white Cycladic houses, several blue Domed churches, bell towers, narrow alleys and uncountable vineyards which produce some of the most famous wines of Santorini.

Avebury (/ˈeɪvbri/) is a Neolithic henge monument containing three stone circles, around the village of Avebury in Wiltshire, in southwest England. One of the best known prehistoric sites in Britain, it contains the largest stone circle in Europe. It is both a tourist attraction and a place of religious importance to contemporary pagans.
Walking on the Baader Höhenweg offers some nice views, like this one into the Gemsteltal, a side valley of the Austrian Kleinwalsertal.
The houses in the foreground belong to Mittelberg.
"You need a village, if only for the pleasure of leaving it. A village means that you are not alone, knowing that in the people, the trees, the earth, there is something that belongs to you, waiting for you when you are not there."

The villages have a well-defined structure: each village is surrounded by an enclosure made of thorny bush shrugs, that protects the villagers from the attacks of predators. When you enter the village, in the centre, there is a second smaller thorny enclosure surrounding the area where the cattle are led to stay for the night, there they are protected from the attacks of hyenas and lions, who could pass the external enclosure.The fact that only the cattle are protected by a double barrier is a tangible evidence of how important animals are to the Maasai; they are more important than their own lives and they are willing to protect them by all means.
