It was a day trip I took twelve years ago, but it was these views from the must-see old village atop a cliff in Nazare, that inspired this three-day trip with the family this year. I remember my first time here, being in awe of how beautiful it all looked from the top and longing to be on the bottom, along the shores to experience the beach for myself.It was a slightly cloudy morning, but it didn’t make this scenic view any less beautiful. I must have been inspired by the beautiful photographs and one of my favorites, Gray Malin. 
Everyone grabbed their phones and went in different directions, capturing the scene in their own way. And I couldn’t help but have a shot taken of one of my favorite dresses this summer along these scenic backdrops. 
A sea of traditional Portuguese tile roofed homes is just a beautiful sight. I often wish more homes back home would take up this lovely roof technique.
As I write this post, the great memories spent here, have me wishing I was underneath the sun on those shores once again. Maybe traveling along the coast, eating more gelato and fresh seafood, along the way of more adventures.
If you didn’t know this town was as historical as it was before stopping by, then the architecture and traditional fado playing in the streets would definitely give it away. There were vendors with handmade tiles, hand sewn sweaters, and speciality food items. As we walked around, seeing all the things this traditional village offered, I fell in love with Nazare even more after so many years. 
I just love this classic European medieval architecture. It’s rich in culture, art, and craftsmanship. Places like these are what make European countries so unique. 
So if you find yourself traveling through Portugal and looking to explore some beach cities, pass by Sitio Nazare, because even these panoramic shots aren’t large enough to capture all of Sitio Nazare’s beauty. 
Great photos of Nazaré (and great blog name!)
Thank you!!
