August 31, 2025,Portugal - Viana - Stadtspaziergang incl Drahtseilbahn und Aussicht von der Kirche

A city walk with plenty of sun and rain.

At the foot of the bridge over the Lima River, there was a small classic car gathering with beautiful cars.

There are beautiful old buildings all over the city, but unfortunately, they are no longer in use and are falling apart.
