【有關葡萄牙旅遊的各項查詢】
【About different inquiries on travelling in Portugal】

近來分別收到不同讀者私下電郵查詢, 問在里斯本、波圖、奧比多斯(Óbidos)、埃武拉 (Évora) 等地方 的旅遊、搭車、飲食推薦、購買葡萄牙紅白酒等資料, 由於需要很多時間整理資料再打出來, 所以我盡可能抽時間盡我所知的回答大家。

另外相信這等問題是大多數將會去葡萄牙的朋友們都想知道的, 因此我嘗試集合類似問題, 一拼在此回答, 以方便大家多了解。

I have recently received various inquiries, asking about visiting, travelling, eating and drinking, buying Portuguese wines in Lisbon, Porto, Óbidos and even Évora. As it involves a lot of details, I'll need some time to consolidate what I know in order to write and answer the questions. I'll try to answer as much as I know.

Also, I'll try to group similar questions together and answer them here so as to benefit more people.

可以穿越時空, 在同一時間裡同時在幾個地方出現嗎? 不是沒可能, 在里斯本啦! :-)

Can we travel through time and space? Being at several places at the same time? Not impossible - be in Lisbon! :-)

在里斯本, 除了大家知道自已是真正在里斯本之外, 還會以為自己到了巴西里約熱內盧和美國的三藩市! 在里斯本市中心的 Cais do Sodré 碼頭，坐渡輪只需要15分鐘, 就可到對岸的 Cacilhas/Almada, 一睹大耶穌像 (葡萄牙文: Santuário Nacional do Cristo Rei) 和4月25日橋 (葡萄牙文: Ponte 25 de Abril) 的風采。

While in Lisbon, in addition to being in the city, you would probably doubt that you were in Rio de Janeiro of Brazil and San Francisco of the U.S. too! At Cais do Sodré Ferry Pier in central Lisbon, you can take a ferry (a 15-minute trip), cross the Tejo River to Cacilhas/Almada. Enjoy the beautiful views of Tejo River, April 25 Bridge and Cristo Rei Statue.

歷史圍城 ~ 奧比多斯 / The historic walled town of Óbidos

【歷史圍城 ~ 奧比多斯】
【The historic walled town of Óbidos】

今趟到奧比多斯遊玩, 終於有時間去爬她那非常著名而又歷史悠久的圍牆, 感覺實在很爽。由於天氣太熱 (不過就很乾爽), 陽光又極度猛烈, 之前我已準備充足: 一大瓶的白開水、帶闊邊草帽和太陽鏡、塗防曬油! 雖然我喜歡古銅膚色, 但不想暴曬弄傷皮膚。

I've been to Óbidos twice before, but it's this time that I have got time to climb her famous and historic walls. It feels really cool, although It's very hot (but dry) and the sun above me was blazing! I walked up on the walls, well prepared with: a large bottle of drinking water, sunglasses and a floppy straw hat with a wide brim, and much sunscreen block on my skin. While I like sun tanned skin, prolonged sun exposures can do a lot of harm to my skin.

從城牆上眺望田野景色, 雖然不是怎麼壯觀景色, 但覺得很舒服! 而且雖然來奧比多斯遊玩的遊人眾多, 但會去爬城牆的人卻不是很多 (特別在盛夏日子)。城牆某些位置跟地面距離較高, 而且完全沒有欄杆, 所以走城牆的朋友們要小心。

將整個城牆圍著走一趟, 我用了大概一個小時 (步行 + 欣賞風景 + 拍照)。:-)

Overlooking from the path of the ramparts was broad sweep of green fields. It's pleasant and relaxing. While many people love to visit Obidos, not many
might indeed climb the walls (in particular on scorching summer days). Be cautious that it's pretty high up from the ground at certain points, and there is no railing at all! So, be really careful.

A pleasant walk around the whole walled city of Óbidos on the path of the ramparts takes about an hour, including walking + stopping to enjoy the views + taking pictures. :-)

被城牆包圍的古城奧比多斯 (Óbidos), 可以說是葡萄牙其中一個最漂亮的小鎮, 很多來葡萄牙旅遊的旅客, 在停留里斯本期間, 會順道到奧比多斯一天遊。

Óbidos is one of the most picturesque towns of Portugal. Many travellers, while staying in Lisbon during their visits in Portugal, make a day trip to this beautiful historic walled town.

我以前試過兩次從里斯本到奧比多斯一天遊 (其中一次是帶著兩位好友去玩)。 因為實在很想看看晚上的小鎮是怎樣的風景, 所以今次特意住了一晚。

晚上的奧比多斯, 遊客少了一大截, 少了一分喧鬧, 卻添上一分寧靜。 從另一個角度看奧比多斯, 它一樣是迷人旖旎。:-)

I have made two day trips to Óbidos before (once I went there with two friends). I was really tempted to see how it would be like at night, so I stayed in the town for a night this time.

With much fewer tourists at night, Óbidos becomes less bustling and more tranquil. It's still a very charming town, but seen from a different perspective. :-)
