Good neighbors Vimeiro is a village less than 5 Km from Turquel. What can I say about it? Nice people, good neighbors, and the traditional simplicity of rural Portugal. |
The church
As usual, the most notorious detail is the church, with the village disposed around it.
Dedicated to S Sebastian, it is a recent building with a tower from 1904.
Windmills
Standing in a valley, Vimeiro was not exactly the best place for windmills, but, atop the surrounding hills, not far, a few were used and preserved to enhance the landscape.
Picnics
Close to Vimeiro, in Gaio, a reserved area may be used to picnics. As a matter of fact, it seems to be a club's area to parties, but it is open and I was told that it may be freely used, so, if you need to stop and eat your catered food, that may be a place.
