Last week we took our nephews to Portugal dos Pequenitos (Kidsize Portugal). It is 200Km from Lisbon and its 70 years old.
It's a small country in miniature where many typical Portuguese houses and Monuments are represented and has pavilions dedicated to the former Portuguese colonies. It was founded in 1940, and it is conceived by Bissaya Barreto and designed by the architect Cassiano Branco.
It's fun because kids can get into all the houses and monuments. They love it!
Of course I loved it too, it was nice to remember my visit when I was 7 years old. :)

Then we went to Ponte de Lima (more 200kms) to a family lunch along the Lima river.
The North of Portugal (Minho) is beautiful!!

I went in Portugal and I saw this place. It's a beautiful and picturesque place. In Italy we have "Italia in Miniatura" in Rimini where all cities are represented with their most important monuments in miniature. Thanks for these memories :o)
Que sitio tan encantador !
Que saudades! Mesmo "grande" adoro ir ao Portugal dos Pequenitos e faço sempre um montão de fotos!
Gracias por compartir este viaje. Es precioso. Besos Clara
