One of the beautiful and medieval towns we visited was Obidos in Portugal. It is a walled city a few hours away from Lisbon, Portugal's capital. The charming town had white buildings painted with different colours and filled with fuchsia bougainvilleas. It's a small town to explore all over but there are charming shops inside to explore. We also tried their famous drink Ginjinha de Obidos, a sour cherry liquor that they pour over a cherry and a chocolate cup. After drinking a shot of the liquor from the chocolate cup, you eat the chocolate together with the cherry. It was a delicious sweet experience and definitely wishing to try more until you realise that your are quite drunk from it. Visiting Obidos was a truly a nice break from busy Lisbon.
