Standing tall on a hilly ridge in the northern part of Portugal's Algarve, Vilarinha 2 is a gorgeous red sandstone menir, part of an alignment of four. Wave-like serpentiform carvings can still be seen (on the lower part of its left edge & centre).

The Barreira Megalithic Complex is a gorgeous site in the Lisbon district of Portugal. It *might* be a constructed stone circle, but archaeologists aren't sure. It's beautiful and has some gorgeous #StandingStones !

This solitary menhir is one of hundreds in Portugal's Algarve. These are some of the oldest standing stones in Europe, dating back over seven thousand years.
The Menir do Padrão is one of a group, possibly a cromeleque. The others are scattered and broken - this one is the only standing member.
