Great historic site to stroll through with family and grab lunch. The historic town is still active, and you can walk either straight though the main street and residential areas of winding narrow roadways all the way to the main castle/now hotel point. If you don't fear a little height, walk the entire perimeter of the old town to the castle along the old guard walls where it will lend great views to the interior and also the exterior cascading hillsides nearby.

A historical place to promenade and stroll with free entry. The story behind this castle is romantic. Embrace all beauty and magic that this site is offering! I commended all people who climb the lofty, jagged narrow pavement! So courageous of them!

Super nice castle! The entire outer wall is preserved and one can walk over it entirely, surrounding the village of Óbidos. The house in the inside are very beautiful and picturesque. There are many shops, souvenirs and restaurants. Almost no scammers or annoying people! It’s also not very crowed so you’ll for sure enjoy your experience. I recommend parking somewhere outside the walls along the street as there is plenty of space. Enjoy the sunset on top of the walls. You’ll like it.

Historical castle and the old town is surrounded with great walls. Many activities to do, there are many shops and restaurants. The view of the old town is amazing when standing on the castle wall walkway.

Highly recommend to fulfill all your medieval dreams! Stay in a very authentic castle! Have private access to veiw points, enjoy an amazing breakfast with outstanding food and atmosphere. We loved our night here. Would love to return

This town is a must to visit. It gives authentic medieval vibes and it is full of nice shops and restaurants. Very typical is a local cherry based liquor ginja. If you have the chance to and visit this place. Very easy to reach and good parking spots. In summer time there is also a medieval festival

It's free to walk the wall and the streets of the town. To do so you will have to climb some pretty steep stairs without guardrails. Great views from the walls and towers.

Beautiful, picturesque, climatic place, its a hidden gem of Portugal, especially in the evening. Strolling trough the narrow medieval streets , food and local stuff: such a nice experience. It's a must go place!

We went there to enjoy a stellar sunset from the wall and it was breathtaking. After entering the main gate just on the left you will see some steep stairs - and then some more! It climbs up quite high, the stones are slippery and there is no safety rail so I’d recommend comfortable but non-slippery shoes. We’ve seen a lot of people with slippers which seemed quite unsafe. Inside the castle there is plenty of restaurant and shopping opportunities and to try the local ginjinha sour cherry liquor which was excellent.

Beautiful castle with great view! The wall is fun but it could be quite dangerous as it has narrow steps and has no rails.

Such a magical place to visit, and only just an hour outside Lisbon. Busier during the Medieval Festival, Chocolate Festival and Christmas Festival. Great to wander around the small streets within the castle walls and admire the great views of the Obidos countryside.

We came from Lisbon and arrived around 2pm. It was very packed with tourist but by 5-6pm everyone was leaving on their tour buses, so we had a good experience walking almost by ourselves in the town. I would say that you just need 2-3 hours to see the whole town and to go around the walls. It’s a beautiful little pace to visit but you don’t need the whole day to explore. It has nice restaurants and souvenir shops.

Definitely worth a stop to this old medieval castle town. Nice narrow Cobblestone streets and walk in the castle. Cute shops and eateries. Hand made items much cheaper than Lisbon.

A nice castle where you can walk along the walls that encloses the small town and has some great views. Once we entered the castle we climbed up the stairs and walked counter clockwise to the villa at the far end. Once there we walked along the base of the wall on the outer side to get away from the sun while still enjoying the awesome views. Inside the walls there are shops and restaurants where most of the tourists from the buses mingle.

Such a fun place to go to! You can walk on the walls but they are without any rails and are steep. But I enjoyed walking there with my family and taking some cool pictures. There were places to eat, shops to buy souvenirs, houses, church. Loved the experience. We also drank ginja cherry liqueur in chocolate cups. Lots of places selling it for 1.5-2 Euros.

Slice of history is well preserved but sadly cannot be fully explored. The castle is a luxury hotel and no entrance unless a guest at the hotel. There is parking on the roads by the castle and the roads are not that bad to drive. Once you park you can walk towards any of the steep steps or sloping roads to access the fort area. The town inside the fort area is amazing with cathedrals, shops, houses. There are beautiful flowers everywhere making this town a fairytale place. The outsides of the castle, medieval set up are all great to enjoy and view. The medieval fair was not much fun, sort of a dry show depending on the timing. We saw the falcon show and it was not worth it and we felt sorry for the birds. They should not be living in cages. The fortress walls can be explored, walked but care must be taken as there are no support walls on one side most of the way. But worth walking to enjoy the glory of the forts history, views. There is a local bakery with vegan choices, amazing taste. The shops here sell the local cherry liquor Ginjha de Obiedos and you can sample it before buying.

Some program is designed for children. So if you are not with children that csn be skipped, that really depends on the program. We were there in december. The castle itself is amazing. Great option to pick up the local wine or at least try that :)

I visited on Palm Sunday. There was a lot of activity, music, theater, and of course a lot of people. Tried Ginjinha de Obidos, a cherry liquor shot, soaked cherry, in a chocolate cup. We found a path outside the castle. Very green and beautiful countryside.

We went here in the good bright weather. Óbidos is really a special city. We stopped here on our way back to Porto from Lisbon. You can explore the castle inside freely. We climbed and enjoyed the view. There are not many visitors during our visit at the end of January. It has museums , a cathedral, and a beautiful landscape view. I remembered that we do not pay any ticket admission. Parking for cars is available nearby.

A lovely and nice medieval old town. You can explore the whole town just by foot. There are a lot of restaurants in the old town, we tried the paella (not traditional but still amazing, flavourful and tasty) And the Portuguese styled steak (which isn't that good but still nice and lovely. A lot of stairs, so you might be a bit tired. But you can get a nice cherry alcohol chocolate shot all for around one euro A shot. You can too sit and relax at a small cafe and order coffee and pastries.

This is a beautiful place to visit. Tiny cobbled streets and quaint houses. Lovely little shops selling some lovely things. Places to grab a coffee. Toilets in the car park.

A really beautiful place that everyone should visit at least once! It's a very scenic castle, with many small pathways, mini stores, traditional souvenir stores and stores with the famous Ginginja

I took the bus from Lisbon early in the morning going to this town. I walked along the wall with my GoPro while there’s not a lot of people yet, sometimes it can get really windy. The view from up there is amazing! Bought a lot of souvenirs too. I came here in late June.

You can find the Porta da Vila at the entrance to the old part of Obidós. It's some nice leftover of old times that thankfully stayed in got shape. When you go to the left there are stairs up to go on the wall and walk around the whole city.

It was very hot day , but we didn’t mind walking around city . There are a lot of flowers ,which makes the streets so beautiful. A lot of souvenir shops, restaurants . Really enjoyed walking

A extremely beautiful place full of history and an amazing view. The castle walls rise beautifully on the horizon. But, if you're going to climb the city walls, do be very careful. There are no safety railings, so you can fall off.

Óbidos what can you say except that it's a must see/visit place.

Beautiful charming place to visit, Obidos! The streets, the food, the shops, everything was wonderful and I did lots of shopping here. This is a must place to stop.

Absolutely gorgeous. So far one the most beautiful & interesting place i visited.

Nice place for coffee or snack. Right between the bus stop and the Castle Gate. Tosta was tasty, coffee good.

Lovely, lively aldeia... Spectacular vies from the risky wall walk

So beautiful, especially the woman who was singing opera when we arrived. What is crazy is that cars are allowed through from both directions.

An amazing quaint town with lots of history

Reminds you of old-world Europe from the movies. A must see.

The entrance to this medieval town is beautiful. The day that we went we were lucky there was a young lady singing Ave Maria in opera style.

Nestled within the walls of a medieval castle, a charming little town of narrow streets with shops and restaurants to discover. The walkway along the perimeter is not for the faint of heart - there’s no safety rails on the 4 foot wide pathway, and being at times 10+ meters above the town, it can be a little scary especially on windy days. Be careful as well for the stone walkways that have been weathered smooth over time (can be slippery). Expect to spend 1.5-3hours there. Amazing views and a couple old churches to see as well.

It’s a nice entrance to the Old Town which is surrounded by well-preserved walls that survived thru the centuries. Definitely worth walking the narrow streets of the town and checking all the things there. Mind the cars that also go thru this entrance and the slippery stones in case of the rain.

Charming entrance to the old Town of Obidos. Beautiful tile work Next to the entrance, on the left are the stairs which leads to the top of the castle walls. One side has no handrail

A beautiful place to visit especially during Christmas time as there is a large Christmas village.

It's a nice historical place. The wall is fun to walk, but be careful, no handrails at all. Not recommend for elderly.

I love Óbidos. Great day outing with friends and family. There are themed events throughout the year.

(Translated by Google) Very beautiful and very well located, in the highest part of Lourinhã, where you can see the whole village (Original) Muito bonita e muito bem localizada,na parte mais alta da Lourinhã,donde é avistada por toda a vila

(Translated by Google) While passing through Lourinhã I decided to pass by this church, which I didn't have the opportunity to enter because a private ceremony (wedding) was taking place. But even so, I was able to contemplate the exterior and the surroundings. (Original) De passagem pela Lourinhã decidi passar por esta igreja, na qual não tive oportunidade de entrar por estar a decorrer uma cerimónia privada (casamento).

(Translated by Google) The Castelo Church or Antiga Matriz Church is located at the highest point of Lourinhã, a very beautiful and peaceful place, with a forest next to the church, from where you also have a beautiful view of the city. Unfortunately we were unable to enter the church as it was closed. It was built at the end of the 14th century, in the Gothic style and classified as a National Monument on June 29, 1922.

(Translated by Google) The Church of Santa Maria do Castelo, also known as Igreja do Castelo or Antiga Igreja Matriz da Lourinhã, was built at the end of the 14th century, in the Gothic style. It is a beautiful church, essential to see for anyone interested in the history of Gothic in Portugal. I highlight, on the outside, the beautiful rose window, a portico decorated with shells and scallops and the historic capitals. As for the interior, unfortunately I couldn't see it, as it was closed. (Original) A Igreja de Santa Maria do Castelo, também conhecida por Igreja do Castelo ou Antiga Igreja Matriz da Lourinhã foi edificada nos finais do século XIV, em estilo gótico.

Destaco, no exterior, a bela rosácea, um pórtico decorado com conchas e vieiras e os capitéis historiados. Quanto ao interior, infelizmente não consegui observar, por estar fechada.

(Translated by Google) The castle church is both a church and a tourist attraction, and also has a large garden with several trees. The church itself has little lighting and gets very cold easily, the people at the church are friendly and charitable and try to help the homeless at the door, the chairs there are a little old but they work. The outside of the church is an authentic tourist office, with signs hidden along the route. (Original) A igreja do castelo é ao mesmo tempo uma igreja como um ponto turistico, tendo ainda um grande jardim com várias árvores. A igreja em si tem pouca iluminação e entra muito frio facilmente, as pessoas da igreja são simpáticas e caridosas e tentam ajudar os sem abrigo á porta, as cadeiras de lá são um pouco velhas mas servem. A parte de fora da igreja é um autentico posto turistico, tendo ainda placas escondidas ao longo do percurso.

The worst nightmare I’ve ever witnessed in Portugal: Excess of people making it difficult to get into the rides, which you have to pay separately from the main ticket, so you get charged twice. Lack of organisation and structure. It’s not safe if you have small children!!! Extremely overpriced and you aren’t able to pay cashless, because there is no service and then the atms inside don’t have any cash. Definitely not worth the visit to this event, you’re much better off in just visiting the village itself.

It was nice, the Xmas Harry Potter event is a bit lame tho, it's mostly just normal stuff with with Harry Potter stuff around it, good for kids tho, and there's way too many people if you don't go early(close to opening time).

Unique and historically rich

I recommend you to eat 10€ instead of paying here to enter. Everything is over crowded you have to wait in line for hours…. Basically you can’t access anything they promised. Waste of time and money very poorly organised because of greed and ambition of earning money. Just act like you went inside and saw everything or just look at the photos, that will be enough experience …. Just don’t go here and instead use 10 euro to drink or eat outside….

Amazing day! Lovely shops and restaurants! Well preserved historical village.

Queues are everywhere. For instance we spent one hour and 20 mins for snow tubing. When we got our turn the staff wanted to close the gate (it was 5 mins before Vila’s ending) but hopefully we could negotiate. The place is totally, no… TOTALLY crowded. There is no any navigation, no any managing. I will never come back there and do not advise anybody to go there. Very poor experience which is not worth its money and your time.

Way too busy. They don’t appear to limit ticket sales

Avoid Vila Natal! Vila Natal event is very weak organized and you simply overpay for everything. The ticket was not possible to be bought with small discount on webpage to avoid queues on the same day when You arrive (not feasible to buy previous day because Covid test is now required). The bungee trampoline is supervised by a young fella who chats with other kids from side and looks into his smartphone more than he looks after safety of jumpers and does not control 5min at all so the queues are abnormal. If you want to take thecaroussel and you have 2 years old kid you must pay for the kid (who cannot take the caroussel alone and You should be the one who looks after him/her) and yourself. The caroussel is supervised by unpolite fella who pretends that he does not speak English despite he understands everything and laughs on you when you try to explain. It was not the case with train where you need to pay only for the kid and it is supervised by a polite lady. There is no INFORMATION staff available when You are inside! It is inadequate that You need to pay for the entrance and then for every movement You make. The event is overestimated. Better enjoy just visiting the Obidos or Wonderland Lisboa where there is no entrance fee and it is much better organized.

Awesome experience, the chocolate and ginga festival was something to remember.

Really beautiful little streets within the city walls. It is all walkable and it is pleasant when it is such a beautiful autumn day.

(Translated by Google) The town - a fairy tale! We spent a beautiful morning there and we just happened to have the luxury of not having too many tourists. And we could soak up the atmosphere from centuries ago! We walked, drank cherry vodka, shopped and, most of all, admired the beautiful buildings. And we had the impression that we had miraculously moved back in time! Wonder! (Original) Miasteczko - bajeczka! Spędziliśmy tam piękny poranek i akurat mieliśmy ten luksus, że nie było zbyt wielu turystów. I mogliśmy się napawać atmosferą sprzed wieków! Spacerowaliśmy, piliśmy wiśniówkę, robiliśmy zakupy a przede wszystkim podziwialiśmy piękne zabudowania. I mielismy wrażenie, że w cudowny sposób przenieśliśmy się w czasie! Cudo!

A charming little village to walk, take postcard pictures, eat and drink ginginha in a day trip from Lisbon.

(Translated by Google) Beautiful and central street where the life of the town takes place, clubs and restaurants, bars, shops, to be walked calmly looking for the most characteristic views. (Original) Bella e centrale strada dove si svolge la vita del paese, locali e ristoranti, bar, negozi, da percorrere con calma cercando gli scorci più caratteristici.

(Translated by Google) Rua Direita in Óbidos, already named in the 14th century, connects Porta da Vila to the Castle. Along the street that runs through the historic center, there are old houses, some emblazoned with coats of arms, small shops, bars and typical restaurants and we discover small, truly charming corners! It is the lung of the old medieval town! (Original) A Rua Direita em Óbidos, já assim denominada no século século XIV , liga a Porta da Vila ao Castelo .

(Translated by Google) Óbidos is one of the best examples of a Portuguese walled city and one of the largest tourist destinations in Lisbon. Óbidos has it all, property of the queen of Portugal, the town was given to the queen as a gift to Queen Isabel on her wedding day, this gave Óbidos a positive heritage that it still preserves. Traditional houses, beautiful cobbled streets, a wall and a medieval castle. You can not ask for more. It is a very small town, in just 2 hours you can have visited everything The direct route is the street that connects the entrance to the town with the Castle. It is a street of beautiful houses, most of them converted into souvenir shops, fashion stores, liquor stores or bars. Our visit was the week before Easter, as we had already read that the village was almost always saturated, we decided to be there very early or in the morning. We were able to park perfectly and see its empty streets, the church and savor it in silence, most of the businesses still closed. Around 10 it began to come to life, and at 12 we were leaving with the visit done, it was impossible chaos. A must-see route if you visit the surroundings of Lisbon (about 80km). I loved. I would definitely return, that is… very early 😉 (Original) Óbidos es uno de los mejores ejemplos de ciudad amurallada portuguesa y uno de los mayores destinos turísticos de Lisboa. Óbidos lo tiene todo, propiedad de la reina de Portugal, la población fue dada a la reina como regalo a la reina Isabel él dia de su boda, esto dotó a Óbidos de una herencia positiva que aún conserva. Casas tradicionales,bonitas calles empedradas, una muralla y un castillo medieval. No se puede pedir màs. Es una población muy pequeña, en apenas 2 horas puedes haber visitado todo La ruta direita es la calle que comunica la entrada a la villa, con el Castillo. Es una calle de preciosas casas, reconvertidas la mayoría en tiendas de recuerdos, moda, licorerías o bares. Nuestra visita fue la semana antes de Pascua, como ya habíamos leído que la villa casi siempre estaba saturada, decidimos estar ahí bien temprano o por la mañana. Pudimos aparcar perfectamente y ver sus calles vacías, la iglesia y saborearla en silencio, la mayoría de los negocios aún cerrados. Sobre las 10 empezó a cobrar vida, y a las 12 que nos marchábamos ya con la visita realizada, aquello era un caos imposible. Ruta obligada si visitas los alrededores de Lisboa ( a unos 80km). Me encanto. Sin duda volvería, eso si… bien temprano 😉

(Translated by Google) Magical place to walk from Torre da Vila to Óbidos Castle. Restaurants, cafes, drinks, souvenirs, you will find it all. Its small village atmosphere transports you to the past. (Original) Lugar mágico para caminhar desde a Torre da Vila até o Castelo de Óbidos. Restaurantes, cafés, bebidas, souvenires, encontra de tudo. O seu ambiente de pequena vila transporta ao passado.

Beautiful

(Translated by Google) The Obidos Castle is one of the most beautiful castles I know in Portugal. One of the largest and best kept. Take a breath and climb the staircase that leads to the walls and from there you will get an overview of the beautiful medieval features of Óbidos. (Original) O Castelo de Óbidos é um dos castelos mais bonitos que conheço em Portugal. Um dos maiores e mais bem conservados. Arranjem fôlego e subam a escadaria que leva às muralhas e a partir daí ficarem com uma panorâmica geral dos belos traços medievais de Óbidos.

Beautiful medieval town. Very worthwhile. Glad we stopped here.

(Translated by Google) Amazing annual event, takes place in August, book the hostel in June for more options. Arrive by 10am to park nearby. I strongly recommend. In 2020 I'll be back (Original) Evento anual sensacional, ocorre em agosto, reserve a pousada em junho para ter mais opções. Chegue até às 10h para estacionar próximo. Recomendo fortemente. Em 2020 voltarei

Don’t miss this event if you’re in Obidos at the right time! Buy tickets ahead of time and they’re a little cheaper. You can rent costumes for 7 euro per day just outside of the wall (it took us a while to find this). For rental, you have to leave behind id. It’s almost like dinner theatre - lots of shows to watch.

Mood Lodging @ 👑 Mercado Medieval 2022 🏰 The entire village is celebrating, with lots of music, vibrant colours, different smells and medieval outfits. An historical event, where we can journey and experience the Middle Ages and where we have hundreds of incredible animation and entertainment, performance and theater groups. And the celebration doesn't end there, the local associations provided delicious food, meat and fish dishes, sauces and seasonings, breads with chorizo or codfish, leaves the mouths watering to the attentive eyes of the people. The glasses overflow with wine and beer for the celebration that promises to be epic and through whole the night. This is how another edition of one of the most anticipated events of the year passed, this year was special, a lot of expectation for a return that we can say was excellent and that leaves us impatient and already eager for the next year. Congratulations to Óbidos and to all those involved who provided a great journey and experience for those who visited our village. We are already counting down the days for the next year...

Nice place. Don't need to buy any tickets to visit it.

Great Food, Great Music. Get yourself a costume for even more fun! 10/10.

The fest was cool. A lot of people wear Middle Ages costumes.

Awesome festival, dress up and visit ancient times!

Obidos is well worth a visit. It's stunning. Fantastic views. Little shops and a good choice of snack bars. Very pretty.

Aqueduct looks quite plain and forms the the border of one of the car parks.

A nice place to start the visit in P Obidos. There's a parking place nearby and I recommend to park there and start walking.

Still stays strong after many years. You have a nice trail around.

The Aqueduto da Usseira is seen just before entering Obidos, it survived the 1755 earthquake that stoke Lisbon. Very important source of water in ancient times.

Lovely medieval place, great to see. Narrow streets with lots of Ginja on offer to try. Another one off for me 😍

I had a lovely time perfect weather but not long enough time there which was a pity.

💚nice to visit

A very nice park for car, but why there is a huge wall?

(Translated by Google) This monument is located on the main street of Obidos, towards the castle. It is located near the Church. (Original) Ce monument se situe dans la rue principale d'Obidos, en direction du château. Il est situe prés de l’Église.

São Pedro Church a charm church on this medieval town, beautiful structure in the outside, inside the design and decoration are spectacular, nice tiled walls and gorgeous altar.

Built in the century. XIII-XIV, it was a Gothic basilica with three naves, with porch and staircase, in the main outer portico. It was the headquarters of the Collegiate Church of S. Pedro. It collapsed with the 1755 earthquake, leaving only the high altar in gilded woodwork with a throne (1690-1705) and the bell tower with a spiral-shaped stone staircase. Its subsequent reconstruction was very simple. It has an excellent altarpiece of São Pedro by the painter João da Costa. The painter Josepha de Óbidos and the sacred orator Beneficiado Rafael Silveira Malhão are buried here.

(Translated by Google) The first church I have ever seen on my Portugal trip. There was a ritual inside, while afraid to enter, our guide said, "Come in, go in, it's not a problem." The church was built at the end of the 16th century. Between the end of the 17th century and the beginning of the 18th century, it was decorated with baroque motifs such as chancellor. (Original) Portekiz gezimde gördüğüm ilk kilise. İçeride ayin vardı, girmeye korkarken, rehberimiz "Girin, girin, problem değil demişti." Kilise 16. yüzyılın sonunda inşa edilmiştir. 17. yüzyılın sonu ile 18. yüzyılın başı arasında şansölye gibi barok motiflerle süslenmiştir.

t is also one of those small churches inside the town. This time I was not able get in because I was in hurry but I am sure it will be beautiful and peaceful inside.

(Translated by Google) Beautiful church, the bell tower decorated with black bands, rich interior with golden altar, plastered walls, statues, an artistic ensemble that makes it interesting. (Original) Bellissima chiesa, il campanile decorato con fasce nere, interno ricco con altare dorato, muri intonacati, statue, un insieme artistico che la rende interessante.

(Translated by Google) Built in the middle of the thirteenth or fourteenth century, it was a Gothic basilica with three naves that stood out for being the seat of the collegiate church of Saint Peter. Unfortunately, it collapsed in the 1755 earthquake. Only the main altar and the bell tower remain from the original building. Reconstruction after the earthquake was simple. It has an altarpiece depicting Saint Peter by the painter João da Costa. The current parish priest ordered that frames be placed on the altars and decorated with beautiful cloths during Lent and Easter time. Father Rafael Silveira Malhao, brother of the well-known character who inspired the traditional song “o Malhao, Malhao”, and the esteemed artist and feminist Josepha de Obidos are buried here. (Original) Edificada em meados do século treze ou catorze, era uma basílica gótica de três naves que se distinguia por ser sede da colegiada de São Pedro. Lamentavelmente ruiu com o terramoto de 1755. Do edifício original apenas resta o altar mor e a torre sineira. A reconstrução após o terramoto foi singela. Tem um retábulo a retratar São Pedro do pintor João da Costa. O pároco atual ordenou que se colocassem caixilhos nos altares e se decorassem com bonitos panos durante a quaresma e tempo Pascal. Aqui se encontram sepultados o padre Rafael Silveira Malhao, irmão da conhecida personagem que inspirou a canção tradicional “o malhao, malhao”, e a prezada artista e feminista Josepha de Obidos.

(Translated by Google) While visiting Obidos, I noticed this church. Inside you can see a beautiful retable and some beautiful side altars. (Original) Visitando Obidos, ho notato questa chiesa. All'interno si possono notare un bel retablo e dei begli altari laterali.

This cafe and restaurant is at the end of Obidos Lagoon. It is reachable by a car with plenty of free parking space. I was spending my day with a bike, and this place offered a prefect place for a break. Nice views form the terrace towards the lagoon. There are tables inside, too. Quite environment and a good place to relax. Good coffee and small bites with friendly service.

It’s the place to go if you are looking for a gente swim without being bashed by the waves and away from the crowds. Your car reaches right to the water front. It’s got a small cafe which will satisfy your basic needs. Breath taking view of the surroundings. If you are one of those who likes to barbecue then this a place is for you. It’s got a small place where you can set up your barbecue and a few benches to sit while waiting for the food to get done. Give it shot you won’t regret it….!😊

Great place for birdwatching. Wonderful views. Worthed the visit.

Great for seeing Greater Flamingo’s

Had the best time of my life with my girlfriend in these two weeks at the Lagoa. Go there!

Great place to telax

Wonderful place. Even thogh we were here in April we did swim in the lagoon and the ocean. A little cold, but definitely worth it.

Nice but simple church. Worth a little visit; don’t forget to walk around the church to see all the windows!

Worth a quick stop to see this religious site under the backdrop of the Obidos Castle above. Cafe on-site or jump back in your car for the 2 minute drive to the castle and old town for a stroll.

As far as churches go, this one is OK. It’s a strange shape and certainly sticks out in the fields surrounding it. We were hoping to go inside, but sadly watched the doors get locked hours earlier than we expected.

It was closed, but from outside, its very impressive and beautiful architecture! The Santuario is not so far from the centre of Óbidos, it's worthy of going there!

Small but delightful church. Unusual hexagonal shape and featuring an ancient stone Crucifix. Large parking lot.

It's side by side the beautiful Óbidos Medivieal Town! Was build by a farmer and the shape is octogonal remind us the times of the old Templars church! Across the road you can walk on an beautiful pears farm!

Looks much better from outside. Inside is actually very small

This is an interesting church. It's beautiful, unusually shaped (hexagonal and tall but with surprisingly little area for pews). It's worth a short walk puts of the town's walls.

Great historic site to stroll through with family and grab lunch. The historic town is still active, and you can walk either straight though the main street and residential areas of winding narrow roadways all the way to the main castle/now hotel point. If you don't fear a little height, walk the entire perimeter of the old town to the castle along the old guard walls where it will lend great views to the interior and also the exterior cascading hillsides nearby.

A historical place to promenade and stroll with free entry. The story behind this castle is romantic. Embrace all beauty and magic that this site is offering! I commended all people who climb the lofty, jagged narrow pavement! So courageous of them!

Super nice castle! The entire outer wall is preserved and one can walk over it entirely, surrounding the village of Óbidos. The house in the inside are very beautiful and picturesque. There are many shops, souvenirs and restaurants. Almost no scammers or annoying people! It’s also not very crowed so you’ll for sure enjoy your experience. I recommend parking somewhere outside the walls along the street as there is plenty of space. Enjoy the sunset on top of the walls. You’ll like it.

Historical castle and the old town is surrounded with great walls. Many activities to do, there are many shops and restaurants. The view of the old town is amazing when standing on the castle wall walkway.

Highly recommend to fulfill all your medieval dreams! Stay in a very authentic castle! Have private access to veiw points, enjoy an amazing breakfast with outstanding food and atmosphere. We loved our night here. Would love to return

This town is a must to visit. It gives authentic medieval vibes and it is full of nice shops and restaurants. Very typical is a local cherry based liquor ginja. If you have the chance to and visit this place. Very easy to reach and good parking spots. In summer time there is also a medieval festival

It's free to walk the wall and the streets of the town. To do so you will have to climb some pretty steep stairs without guardrails. Great views from the walls and towers.

Beautiful, picturesque, climatic place, its a hidden gem of Portugal, especially in the evening. Strolling trough the narrow medieval streets , food and local stuff: such a nice experience. It's a must go place!

We went there to enjoy a stellar sunset from the wall and it was breathtaking. After entering the main gate just on the left you will see some steep stairs - and then some more! It climbs up quite high, the stones are slippery and there is no safety rail so I’d recommend comfortable but non-slippery shoes. We’ve seen a lot of people with slippers which seemed quite unsafe. Inside the castle there is plenty of restaurant and shopping opportunities and to try the local ginjinha sour cherry liquor which was excellent.

Beautiful castle with great view! The wall is fun but it could be quite dangerous as it has narrow steps and has no rails.

Such a magical place to visit, and only just an hour outside Lisbon. Busier during the Medieval Festival, Chocolate Festival and Christmas Festival. Great to wander around the small streets within the castle walls and admire the great views of the Obidos countryside.

We came from Lisbon and arrived around 2pm. It was very packed with tourist but by 5-6pm everyone was leaving on their tour buses, so we had a good experience walking almost by ourselves in the town. I would say that you just need 2-3 hours to see the whole town and to go around the walls. It’s a beautiful little pace to visit but you don’t need the whole day to explore. It has nice restaurants and souvenir shops.

Definitely worth a stop to this old medieval castle town. Nice narrow Cobblestone streets and walk in the castle. Cute shops and eateries. Hand made items much cheaper than Lisbon.

A nice castle where you can walk along the walls that encloses the small town and has some great views. Once we entered the castle we climbed up the stairs and walked counter clockwise to the villa at the far end. Once there we walked along the base of the wall on the outer side to get away from the sun while still enjoying the awesome views. Inside the walls there are shops and restaurants where most of the tourists from the buses mingle.

Such a fun place to go to! You can walk on the walls but they are without any rails and are steep. But I enjoyed walking there with my family and taking some cool pictures. There were places to eat, shops to buy souvenirs, houses, church. Loved the experience. We also drank ginja cherry liqueur in chocolate cups. Lots of places selling it for 1.5-2 Euros.

Slice of history is well preserved but sadly cannot be fully explored. The castle is a luxury hotel and no entrance unless a guest at the hotel. There is parking on the roads by the castle and the roads are not that bad to drive. Once you park you can walk towards any of the steep steps or sloping roads to access the fort area. The town inside the fort area is amazing with cathedrals, shops, houses. There are beautiful flowers everywhere making this town a fairytale place. The outsides of the castle, medieval set up are all great to enjoy and view. The medieval fair was not much fun, sort of a dry show depending on the timing. We saw the falcon show and it was not worth it and we felt sorry for the birds. They should not be living in cages. The fortress walls can be explored, walked but care must be taken as there are no support walls on one side most of the way. But worth walking to enjoy the glory of the forts history, views. There is a local bakery with vegan choices, amazing taste. The shops here sell the local cherry liquor Ginjha de Obiedos and you can sample it before buying.

Some program is designed for children. So if you are not with children that csn be skipped, that really depends on the program. We were there in december. The castle itself is amazing. Great option to pick up the local wine or at least try that :)

I visited on Palm Sunday. There was a lot of activity, music, theater, and of course a lot of people. Tried Ginjinha de Obidos, a cherry liquor shot, soaked cherry, in a chocolate cup. We found a path outside the castle. Very green and beautiful countryside.

We went here in the good bright weather. Óbidos is really a special city. We stopped here on our way back to Porto from Lisbon. You can explore the castle inside freely. We climbed and enjoyed the view. There are not many visitors during our visit at the end of January. It has museums , a cathedral, and a beautiful landscape view. I remembered that we do not pay any ticket admission. Parking for cars is available nearby.

A lovely and nice medieval old town. You can explore the whole town just by foot. There are a lot of restaurants in the old town, we tried the paella (not traditional but still amazing, flavourful and tasty) And the Portuguese styled steak (which isn't that good but still nice and lovely. A lot of stairs, so you might be a bit tired. But you can get a nice cherry alcohol chocolate shot all for around one euro A shot. You can too sit and relax at a small cafe and order coffee and pastries.

This is a beautiful place to visit. Tiny cobbled streets and quaint houses. Lovely little shops selling some lovely things. Places to grab a coffee. Toilets in the car park.

A really beautiful place that everyone should visit at least once! It's a very scenic castle, with many small pathways, mini stores, traditional souvenir stores and stores with the famous Ginginja

I took the bus from Lisbon early in the morning going to this town. I walked along the wall with my GoPro while there’s not a lot of people yet, sometimes it can get really windy. The view from up there is amazing! Bought a lot of souvenirs too. I came here in late June.

So disappointing. Obidos has such a rich history, and yet this museum doesn’t really detail any of it. No information about the foundation of the city, its history as a Roman outpost, it’s evolution under the Moors (who built the walls!), the history of its name, or even a single mention of obidos as the place of significance to the carnation revolution. It’s more of a Christian art collection. There is so much more to obidos than Catholic imagery. The plus side was a floor dedicated to Josefa of Obidos, the Painter.

It was ok. Walked around in under 10 minutes. Nice pictures.

(Translated by Google) Óbidos is a medieval walled town, in which the visitor is invited to get lost in the labyrinth of its narrow streets lined with beautiful houses and churches, and to go back in time. The museum exhibits sacred art, including works of sculpture and painting, and has a canvas signed by the famous painter Josefa d'Óbidos (1630-1684). It also presents a valuable collection of French and English weapons from the Peninsular War, baroque furniture, architectural remains and Roman archaeology.

(Translated by Google) Small but worth visiting, lots of stories to tell (Original) Pequeno mas vale a pena visitar, muita história para contar

A quirky little store in central Obidos selling fruits, wines and books among other things! Fun place to visit if you love books

Nice bookstore with market on the side.

A really nice place with lots of interesting books. Would be even nicer if they had cosy corner and sell tea. I would have loved to stay there longer to drink some tea and read.

Nice bookshop, but we were offered ginjinha here around 9pm and the staff cleverly avoided telling us the price upfront even when we asked. It was clearly a sneaky technique to rip off tourists. Turned out they charge double the normal rate of 1 EUR because it's "biological". We felt manipulated and taken advantage of because we didn't speak Portuguese well. I spoke to the owner and he told me I "should ask price in advance". Be careful!

One of the most charming bookstores in Portugal, with a very diverse selection, both new and second hand books, post cards, magazines and other printed materials. There is also a small gourmet grocery shop inside where you can buy locally produced jams, wines and other alcoholic beverages, or just a slice of house made cake. Besides all that, it is located in central Óbidos, which is a place worth visiting on its own.

Quiet and secluded in a valley. Rooms movie themed - quite quirky but nice. Staff very helpful. Good place to stay a couple of days and rest

Lots of old books. Not very organized but a wonderful atmosphere and a few second hand goodies.

Easily the funkiest little shop in all Obidos. It's a bookstore with a small food market. Great spot for munching and browsing.
