This bench is just great to rest if you walk by foot since the lower part of the village. The village starts in a lower part having the rest of the houses and the centre on the top of a hill.
Unique Suggestions: Enjoy, relax.

johnsakura Says: This is a must in the village. Although you can easily miss it. Just go up the village until the highest point. You'll reach a very tall water deposit (tall for the size of the village of course), the water deposit is made in the sight seing point.
johnsakura Says: The fields around São Bartolomeu do Outeiro are very green during Spring time. This is an amazing picture with very nice colors. The sun was behind the hill so all the little grass was showing its color 100 percent.
johnsakura Says: More cows. I just love them. Its a great animal, very curious. In Alentejo there are fields and fields full of herds of cows.
Favorite thing: This street scene is the lower part of the village. The majority of the village's old buildings are situated on top of the hill or going up the hill. Very interesting. You have to climb a bit.
