Azenhas do Mar is a picturesque fishing village on the Atlantic coast of Portugal, located in the Sintra region, about 40 km from Lisbon. It is famous for its whitewashed houses that seem to "hang" over the ocean cliffs, creating a unique landscape.
Here are a few interesting facts about Azenhas do Mar:
Watermills: The village's name can be translated as "Mills by the Sea" (azenhas is an old Portuguese word meaning watermills). In the past, actual mills here used water flowing down the hills.
Natural Pool: One of the village's main attractions is a natural pool formed in the ocean cliffs. During high tide, the pool fills with water and becomes a safe swimming spot, especially for children and those who prefer calm waters over waves.
Architectural Heritage: Azenhas do Mar has preserved the charm of a traditional Portuguese village, with white houses and red-tiled roofs. Many buildings are decorated with azulejos, the typical Portuguese ceramic tiles.
Panoramic Views: The village is perched on cliffs, offering stunning views of the Atlantic Ocean. This makes it a popular spot for photographers and travelers seeking breathtaking landscapes.
Cuisine: The village has several restaurants where fresh seafood is served, including fish, squid, and shrimp, often caught straight from the ocean.
Hiking Trail: Azenhas do Mar is part of a famous coastal trail in the Sintra region. Hiking between villages like Praia das Maçãs and Azenhas do Mar is popular with tourists due to the impressive views and wildlife along the way.
Azenhas do Mar is a place where you can enjoy a peaceful atmosphere while feeling the power and beauty of the Atlantic Ocean.

❤ Какие счастливые эти люди, которые могут сидеть спокойно на берегу, мечтательно глядя на набегающую волну, на белоснежную кружевную пену....
И всё это великолепие было, было до нас... 😮❤😊 ... И будет потом (а где будем мы?)...
Как это прекрасно и загадочно... ❤❤❤❤❤
