What a wonderful place to have a picnic. Strikingly beautiful.
Thanks JM...I was looking for a "search" bar in the body of your blog.
I checked out "Heroes at Sunset." Fascinating...and I have seen that before...when I taught a section on Columbus, we used a video which captured the "Heroes." I thought then, and think now, it is a fantastic sculpture.
Well, I've just added a 'not for public use' note on the post now... :-) If only we were about 250 years back in time, maybe there was a chance to be invited by the marquises... I bet it would be worth it! lol!
I've just re-wrote the description of the photos for a better understanding of the place. The palace complex is now a museum, it can be visited, you are allowed to spend the whole day hanging around in the gardens but you can not do a picnic there... :-)
Lovely place and yesss It is perfect for a nice picnic!
If you don`t mind I would like to comment here about older posts: 1)Sobre o Mosteiro :oh gosh! Amazing place! It reminds me Lisbon "Mosteiro dos Jerônimos"! We visited Lisbon in 2005 in our "first"Honeymoon.Certainly we need to come back to Portugal because we want to know a little bit more about Oeiras!So nice city!(Nós estivemos tão pertinho daí!Tem vinhedos em sua região?)
2)By the way...amei teu post sobre Eça de Queiroz!

amazing place for a picnic day :)
What can't the public use it? If not, who does? This is just lovely.
It looks beautiful and warm!
picnic area but not open to public? hmmm...
What a shame, I was ready for a picnic :) Stunning grounds...

Ooh lovely - it's a bit cold up here for a picnic, but I'll happily come to this place!
Just sitting at those tables would be pretty nice too in this kind of weather.
Can you imagine what it would have been like in this place's prime time? The parties, dress, and food. Great picnic area with nice sunshine.
lets go!!
The first shot reminded me of one of the grand gardens here in the mountains but the second revealed a building that isn't at all like anything here.
I like this. It reminds me of a lot of similar places I have seen in Greece.
Looks Cool :)
More like a garden party than a picnic...
Lovely grounds though!
