Best Batalha Tours from Lisbon

In the heart of Portugal lies this national treasure, best known as the home of the Monastery of Batalha, a masterpiece of Gothic and Manueline architecture and a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Built in the late 14th century to commemorate a military victory (Batalha translates to "battle"), its construction spanned two centuries and includes numerous sections, including the impressive Royal Cloisters and the roofless Unfinished Chapels. Outside the monastery walls, you'll find a charming small town tucked into the surrounding hills where excellent wine is produced.
