On the way to Porto from Lisbon, we stopped at Odibos, a charming hill town with an old castle that has been turned into an inn and a lively shopping street.
The last stop before Porto was in Coimbra, a university town, one of the oldest in the world.
We toured the university. Here is a chapel's elaborate ceiling and part of an ornate gilded decoration.

That shopping street looks busy & fascinating, Jack!
I like that first photo. You are making me think a visit to Portugal is in order.
Staying the night at the castle would have been fun.
That ceiling decor is quite a sight.
