Fortaleza de Valença, seen from the Spanish town of Tui across the Rio Minho | Río Miño, the ES-PT border (📷1). Fortifications were begun c. 1262 CE but greatly expanded during 17–18th C. conflicts between Spain & Portugal, with bastions, walls & moats defending two enclosed areas: the inner town or “Praça-Forte” (📷2) & the outer defensive belt or “Coroada”. The inner town is rather touristy, filled with shops & eateries (📷3). However, pastel de nata can be obtained (📷4); the consumption of these small custard tarts may be regarded as confirmation of having arrived in Portugal! 😀

Wir erkunden die Hauptstadt #Tirana in #Albanien. Zwischen modernen Boulevards, alten Häusern und einem versteckten Stellplatz mitten in der Stadt. Während überall gebaut wird und sogar Fake-Bewertungen auftauchen, entdecken wir das echte Tirana und genießen zum Abschluss eine beeindruckende Aussicht über Elbasan.
