Óbidos is a picturesque medieval town located in western Portugal, approximately 80 kilometers north of Lisbon. The town is distinguished by its well-preserved castle and completely enclosed walls that date back to the Middle Ages.

Originally a Roman settlement, Óbidos later became a significant Portuguese town, particularly after King Dinis presented it to Queen Isabel in 1282, establishing a tradition of Portuguese queens owning the town that continued for centuries.

The historic center is characterized by its whitewashed houses, narrow cobblestone streets, and traditional buildings adorned with colorful flowers. The town has maintained its cultural heritage while evolving into a center for arts and literature, hosting various cultural events throughout the year, including the International Chocolate Festival and the Medieval Market. The town's cultural landscape includes several historic churches, such as the Igreja de Santa Maria and São Pedro, which showcase traditional Portuguese architecture and religious art.
