If you’re searching for a day-trip destination, we’ve got a couple of suggestions. Situated 20 miles away, Santarem is worth getting in the car for. Igreja de Nossa Senhora da Conceição ought to be at the top of your list here. Igreja da Santa Clara and Igreja da Graca are interesting attractions too. Locals are also likely to point you in the direction of Leiria, 20 miles away. If you only see one thing here, let it be Batalha Monastery. (But we’re also huge fans of Leiria Castle and Dr. Magalhaes Pessoa Stadium.)
