WRONG! Just some old spots you (gladly) can still find among the modern buildings in the center of Carcavelos, next to Oeiras, which give us an idea of what the former village must have looked like.
Goodness, these are wonderful, JM...I will come back to them several times today because there is so much to see...and, as usual, your photos are superb.
Bem interessante! Sabe JM, aqui no sul teve muito açorianos colonizadores, e mesmo em Joinville ( Estado de Santa Catarina )e a cidade onde estou no momento, guarda-se muito das ruas de "pedras" exatamente como você mostrou numa das fotos da vila.O novo prefeito está "asfaltando"e modernizando as ruas.Acho uma pena porque perde a tradiçao como "história".
So...Nice post dear JM! Have a wonderful weekend Léia :-)
The first one is so secure. I love that the blue theme is even picked up in the metal container. The second gives a great sense of the tiny passageways. The third is beautifully composed with its angles and levels. All three tell a story of the effect of time and weather on building materials and the people who used them. Terrific shots.

They are all just so interesting and I really like the dark blue trim on the one in the first picture!
i like the second photo
This combination of blue and white is superb. It creates an atmosphere of calmness. Nice to have such spots still around.

Wow, so different than usual. Again, my today favorite. Always love houses like them. They're not museum, aren't they? :))
Happy weekend JM.
A very peaceful neighborhood.
THese are wonderful. I love the blue door theme you have going. So much character. I would love to photograph them myself JM. Have a good weekend!

I love all the blue details that you spotted. Lovely, charming houses!
Long live the old!
Nice combination of white and blue, it had to look great! I love the southern countries for the whiteness of their build-up area:)
Wouldn't take much to make these places look great.
Charming place!
The buildings do look old and worn, but I like them!
YOur pictures are definitely enticing me to another Potuguese holiday
... and I guess that it is in one of these old buildings that many of us today would like to live!
I love the top one. So charming. Looks the like the perfect place to choose for a holiday.
There is a quaintness and a hint of former lives that seem to appeal to us. Is it because we all live such fast-paced lives. Great photos.
You can see such houses in rural areas of India.
Sublime nugget of the 'historical' beauty that once was... still is. A hidden gem!
