Marvao Portugal
New email address for a while I am changing servers at the moment.
This is the hilltop town of Marvão, Portalegre, in east central Portugal near the border with Spain.
Took some finding, by web searching – and now I’ve found it, I wouldn’t mind visiting it. 8)
Marvão, Portugal. It looks like an awesome place; like something out of a movie.
Marvão, Portugal.
Pretty cool looking…making me want to start traveling again.

Fun one! Unlike the last, I recognized this one right away, just had a devil of a time finding it in Google Earth. It’s near Mt. Sunday – the location for the city of Edoras in the LOTR movies. It’s west of Methven on the South Island of New Zealand. I think I found the hill at 43.32′.59″/170.53′.57″, but for some reason (even with 3D buildings layer enabled) I can’t get the buildings to show up…
Marvão, Portugal – a medieval town, located on a mountaintop.
Marvao, Alentejo, Portugal.
This is Pan…this one was hard for me too. I do not have Google Earth. I have to rely on geography skills and other clues to make my guesses.
