Obidos Attractions

 
Óbidos (altitude: 70m/230ft)is probably included in every tour of western central Portugal. Because of its prettiness and general attractiveness the whole town has been declared a national monument. This also means that in order to preserve the original townscape there are no big hotels in Óbidos, although there are several small, deluxe establishments inside the old walls. The number of beds is therefore extremely limited, and it is almost impossible to get a room here in the summer months without early reservation. In earlier centuries the Lagoa de Óbidos, a big lagoon with a narrow opening into the sea and now more than 10km/6mi northwest of Óbidos, reached almost to the little town.
