Schellenberg is a historic municipality in the north of Liechtenstein and one of the smallest administrative regions in the country, situated on the gentle slopes of the Rhine Valley, close to the Swiss border. Although small, the town carries the story of Liechtenstein's origins - the ruins of the "Upper Liechtenstein" castle, which is a testament to the Liechtenstein family's acquisition of territories in the 13th century, and the remains of its medieval stone walls still attract history buffs to explore the town. The town of Schellenberg is characterized by its tranquil atmosphere. Schellenberg is known for its idyllic, rural atmosphere, where visitors can stroll along winding paths with views of the Alps and the Rhine, or explore the traditional wooden houses and family-owned breweries for a taste of Liechtenstein's slower pace of life. As an important node of Liechtenstein's "Culture Trail", traditional events such as the Medieval Market are held every year, allowing visitors to experience the richness of this miniature country in a relaxed atmosphere.
Located in the northwestern part of the Portuguese region of Lisbon, about 30 kilometers from the capital, Mafra is a fascinating city that combines Baroque art with natural beauty. Its centerpiece, the Palácio de Mafra, is one of Portugal's most magnificent Baroque complexes, built in 1717 as a palace, convent and royal library, with a collection of 25,000 ancient books and an organ that is one of Europe's greatest treasures. The city is surrounded by the Sintra-Cascais Natural Park, where you can explore the breathtaking scenery and forests of the Atlantic coast on foot or by bike. In June, the "Festival of Mazan" is a vibrant celebration of the local culture with traditional music, food and folklore events, attracting visitors to experience the unique charm of this "living history museum".
