Getaway to visit Castelo de Vide and Marvão
Published by: Toni Martins
Both locations are steeped in history. Castelo de Vide, which D. Pedro V nicknamed Sintra do Alentejo, due to its climate and proximity to the São Mamede mountain range. Castelo de Vide and Marvão are towns located near the border with Spain and therefore called border towns and with that proximity made their castles of great importance in the past.

Make the most of it and make a reunion with the past, finding out about the story that each one has to tell you.
