Postcard from Portugal – Guimarães

Guimarães, about 50 k north east of Porto, is where Portugal began with the first king, Alfonso Henriques, in the first half of the 12th century. There is a lovely medieval centre and castle.
Guimarães, qui se trouve à une cinquantaine de kilomètres nord-est de Porto, est le berceau du Portugal où naquit Alfonso Henriques, le premier roi, pendant la première moitié du 12ieme siècle. Il y a un joli petit centre médiéval et un château bien restauré.
