The town of Obidos is one of the most visited towns in Portugal. It is known as "The Wedding City" since, from 1282, it was the traditional wedding gift of the kings of Portugal to their queens.

In 1444 King Afonso V, then aged ten years, married his eight year old cousin, Isabella in the old church in the central square in the town.

The active and adventurous should take a walk around the town walls but the uneven surface and lack of guard rails make it unsuitable for the young and elderly.

There is a fish market most mornings near the gates to the town and in October there is a festival of ancient music in various places around the town.

While in the area visit the coastal town of Peniche with its many typical fish restaurants and Alcobaca an imposing gothic monastery which has the UNESCO World Heritage classification.
