Visit Tomar on Your Lisbon Trip
Looking for a quick escape from Lisbon? Tomar, the birthplace of the Knights Templar, is just 90 minutes away. With its history, cafes, and views from the castle and convent, Tomar is a day or overnight trip.
Getting There:
You can get to Tomar by train (2 hours from Oriente) or bus (1 hour 45 minutes from Sete Rios). Renting a car gives you more flexibility, especially if you want to visit nearby Almourol Castle.
Best season to visit Tomar:
Spring and autumn are best, but even in winter, Tomar is lovely.
Tomar for Solo Travelers:
Tomar is a safe, flat city, perfect for over-50 solo travelers. Take a stroll along the Nabão River and explore downtown.
Must See:
Start with the Convent of Christ and the Knights Templar Castle. Don't miss the St. John the Baptist Church, the 15th-century synagogue, and the Pegoes Aqueduct. If you're an architecture buff, visit the Santa Maria do Olival Church.
Where to Stay and Eat:
Stay at Hotel Republica or Casa dos Oficios. Eat at the Taverna Antiqua or Café Paraíso, one of the oldest cafes in town.

The basilica de Macarena is truly wonderful and worth a visit. There is a foodie market about 10 minutes away. I went too early so they weren't serving much I was told that you need to arrive about 1:30-2:00pm for lunch. #Sevilla via Instagram http://ift.tt/2h29VCX

Córdoba is a beautiful place. I loved the mesquite but I'm a little overwhelmed with all the tourist shops. It's a little like Key West. I find it hard to get a feel for the place. I'm not in awe at all - but the mesquite was fabulous to see. via Instagram http://ift.tt/2gGJsgx

Real Alcazar has been a lovely visit. Spent 3 hours there and still didn't see it all. Every little corner is beautiful and the architecture is awesome. #sevilla via Instagram http://ift.tt/2gYgBBk

If you are in Lisbon go to the Igreja do Carmo at dusk - they light it up very nicely and you will see the contrast with the beautiful blue sky. It was gorgeous tonight! #Lisbon via Instagram http://ift.tt/2gLEHyQ
