Alentejo - Monsaraz
Perched above the Alqueva dam, Monsaraz benefits from a strategic location and a defensive potential that has always been recognized, as the Roman, Visigothic and Celtic passages attest.
Conquered to the Moors, in the reign of D. Dinis and delivered its defense to the Templars, it is this military order that adds to it, in the 14th century, the walls and the castle from where, even today one can look at neighboring Spain or extend the view across the great Alentejo plains.
With its narrow cobbled streets, which meander among ancient houses with white walls, it offers those who pass by there a very authentic feel of an ancient and medieval Portugal.
Alentejo - Monsaraz
Empoleirada por cima da albufeira do Alqueva, Monsaraz benificia duma localização estratégica e de um potencial defensivo desde sempre reconhecido, como a passagem de romanos , visigodos e celtas o atestam.
Conquistada aos mouros , no reinado de D. Dinis e entregue a sua defesa aos Templários, é esta ordem militar que lhe acrescenta, no século 14, as muralhas e o castelo de onde, ainda hoje se pode olhar para a vizinha Espanha ou estender a vista através das grandes planícies Alentejanas.
Com suas ruas estreitas de paralelepípedos, que serpenteiam entre casas antigas de paredes brancas, oferece a quem por lá passa uma sensação, muito autentica, de um Portugal antigo e medieval.

Morning light creating wall bokeh, the ever present ladder's shadow, and reflection in the glass of the framed print revealing the window through which the light came.
I really like the soft blurriness of the shadows contrasting with the sharp frame. I also like how the window's screen created a subtle texture on the wall. And I like the contrast of color between inside and outside.
Most of all I like how lucky I am to have lived this lifetime.
Happy Wall Wednesday!
This is the point on the Precipice Walk where you start climbing and get a wonderful view on Lake/Llyn Cynwch. The track follows the wall for a while.
Within the old Lodgings building this wall spoke to me - the different colours, shapes, the chips and marks on each stone, and within a wall that's over 500 years old.

I'm revisiting the photos I took of Bryce Canyon back in 2009, reprocessing many, adding a few, and deleting others.
