Ponte de Lima Party// Festa de Ponte de Lima [EN/PT-BR]

[English]

Hello everyone, I hope you are all well šŸ˜Š This weekend I went to Ponte de Lima and I only found out that the Ponte de Lima party was taking place when I got there šŸ˜Š I'll show you and tell you a little about what I saw šŸ˜Š

The festival is called Feiras Novas, it is a nationally renowned festival, attracting, every year, thousands of visitors from all over the country to this great pilgrimage. These parties take place all over the city, the concertinas, the challenging songs, the folklore and the gastronomy transform this party into a unique and unforgettable event, in the pilgrimage that is considered the ā€œlargest live cultural congress in Portugalā€.

Now I'm going to show you a little of the historical procession. It was a very beautiful procession, which talked a lot about the past in the city of Ponte de Lima

In this procession, lots of horses, kings and people playing drums passed by. It was really beautiful šŸ˜Š

There were also some dolls, which here in Portugal are called the CabeƧudos, I don't know what you call these dolls in your countries, I don't even know if they exist there.

then we went for lunch, as it was the party in Ponte de Lima, as expected the restaurants were all full, so we left the party area a little and found one that had plenty of free tables. It was still 12, the restaurant was empty when we left at 1pm the restaurant was already full. We ordered the typical dish here in Ponte de Lima, I had never tried it before but they told me it was very good. We ate rojƵes with sarrabulho rice šŸ˜Š

Then for dessert we went to the party to eat some churros šŸ˜Š Hmmm I love churros šŸ˜‹

Of course, you can't miss it, whenever you're at a popular party I always have to drink a dose of gininha. I love it, and not to mention it felt good šŸ˜Š

At popular festivals here in Portugal, it is customary to have many of these stalls with various stuffed animals, which have several games where you can win one of those stuffed animals if you win the game.

Afterwards we went for a walk around the city of Ponte de Lima and learned a little about the history of this city. Ponte de Lima is very beautiful, I recommend it to everyone who comes to visit Portugal to place it in one of its landmarks šŸ˜Š

The streets were all decorated, it's a shame I didn't stay there until nightfall, to be able to see the lights on.

The river that passes through Ponte de Lima is the Lima River. We went to the Ponte de Lima bridge, which is over the river, and there were very few people passing by, so I stayed there for a while just watching šŸ˜Š

I hope you liked it, see you soon friends šŸ˜Š

OlĆ” a todos, espero que estejam todos bem šŸ˜Š Este fim de semana fui a Ponte de Lima e sĆ³ descobri que estava a decorrer a festa de Ponte de Lima quando lĆ” cheguei šŸ˜Š Vou mostrar-vos e contar-vos um pouco do que fiz vi šŸ˜Š

A festa chama se Feiras Novas, Ć© uma festa de referĆŖncia nacional, atraindo, todos os anos, milhares de visitantes vindos de todo o paĆ­s para esta grande romaria. estas festas acontecem por toda a cidade, as concertinas, os cantares ao desafio, o folclore e a gastronomia transformam esta festa num acontecimento singular e inesquecĆ­vel, na romaria que Ć© considerada o ā€œmaior congresso ao vivo da cultura em Portugalā€.

Agora vou te mostrar um pouco do cortejo histĆ³rico. Foi um cortejo muito lindo, onde fala muito sobre o passado na cidade de Ponte de Lima

Neste cortejo passaram muitos cavalos, reis e pessoas tocando tambores. Foi realmente lindo šŸ˜Š

Tinha tambĆ©m alguns bonecos, que aqui em Portugal se chamam CabeƧudos, nĆ£o sei como vocĆŖs chamam esses bonecos nos seus paĆ­ses, nem sei se eles existem lĆ”.

Depois fomos almocar, como era a festa de Ponte de Lima, como era de prever os restaurantes estavam todos cheios, entĆ£o saĆ­mos um pouco da zona da festa e encontramos um que tinha bastantes mesas livres. Ainda era 12, o restaurante estava vazio quando saĆ­mos das 13 jĆ” estava o restaurante cheio. Pedimos o prato tĆ­pico daqui de Ponte de Lima, eu nunca tinha provado mas disseram-me que era muito bom. Comemos rojƵes com arroz de sarrabulho šŸ˜Š

Depois para sobremesa fomos Ć  festa comer uns churros šŸ˜Š Hmmm adoro churros šŸ˜‹

Claro, nĆ£o pode faltar, sempre que vocĆŖ em uma festa popular tenho de beber sempre uma dose de ginginha. Adoro, e entĆ£o sem contar Ć© que eu soube bem šŸ˜Š

Nas festas populares aqui em Portugal Ć© costume ter muitas destas barracas com vĆ”rios peluches, que tĆŖm vĆ”rios jogos onde podes ganhar um daqueles peluches se ganhares o jogo.

Depois fomos dar uma volta pela cidade de Ponte de Lima e conhecer um pouco sobre a histĆ³ria desta cidade. Ponte de Lima Ć© muito bonita, recomendo a todos que vierem visitar Portugal a colocar num dos seus pontos de referĆŖncia šŸ˜Š

As ruas estavam todas decoradas, foi uma pena nĆ£o ter ficado lĆ” atĆ© o anoitecer, para poder ver as luzes acesas.

O rio que passa por Ponte de Lima Ć© o Rio Lima. Fomos atĆ© Ć  ponte de Ponte de Lima, que fica sobre o rio, e havia muito pouca gente a passar, por isso fiquei lĆ” um bocado sĆ³ a observar šŸ˜Š

Espero que tenham gostado, atĆ© breve amigos šŸ˜Š
