...towards Sanctuary of the Sacred Heart of Jesus in Mount of Santa Luzia in the city of Viana Portugal.
Hello wednesday walkers, or in this case, wednesday climbers. I spent some days in the city of Viana in Porugal, and there was a beautiful church on top of the hill above the town. And that sounded like a nice wednesday walk.
In the beginning, I thought it would be a nice walk-up. But when I saw the stairs I asked ai how many stept there were... 650 was the awensor. I can't remember that I took so many steps in one trip, so I went for it.
After the first little corner, I could see far away in front of me, and that was a hard view. It looked like a never-ending staircase.
But the views over the bay and city were very pretty. And it felt rewarding to see that. Also, taking a picture of the view around me aloud me to take a rest. I have as many pictures as you can imagine.
They had put upp a couple of banches on route. But I didn't sit down on them. I saw those doors along the stairs. They let to the tracks of the tram that drove up and down. Yes, I could have taken the tram, but walking is way better.
And the end of the stairs felt like a nice reward.
The church was very big and beautiful.
And I was just in time for a visit. The church was still open.
Here was it that I saw digital candles in a church for the first time. They are going more and more digital.
I was hoping for nice views frome the top of this hill but to bad that the seafog that was rolling in, de city completly coverd. I was hoping that I coukd take a view over rhe sea.
And now I needed to go back down. I could have taken the tram for 2 euros but I took the stairs again. I just took one picture here. I was done with it for that day. A nice panorama of the view from above.
