Peninha

Peninha
Up high, at 488 meters of altitude, the Sanctuary of Peninha enchants with its unshakable magic and mystique. Built out of popular devotion, the Chapel of Nossa Senhora da Penha (Peninha) follows an alleged apparition of Our Lady to a poor shepherdess. This architectural complex also comprises the secular chapel of São Saturnino and an enigmatic romantic-revival mansion built in 1918 by António Augusto Carvalho Monteiro (owner of Quinta da Regaleira).

Place of worship since ancient times and heir to a long magic-religious tradition, it is shrouded in legends that have crossed generations of pilgrims.

Faut-il que la place soit restreinte pour construire dans de tels endroits, je comprends mieux avec le résumé mais quand même !
Belle soirée d'été cher José.

Très belle vue de ce sanctuaire bâtie dans ce lieu que je trouve affectivement
mystique... !
rien que de voir ta photo, inspire du respect, de la méditation
et de la réflexion sur la remise en question de soi

The yellow walls make for excellent lead in lines. The buildings seem to grow out of the rocks.
