Spain, Portugal and Gibraltar Trip 2024 - Day 6 - Fatima

We arrived in Fatima in the afternoon. Fatima is a central Portuguese Town and is home to Sanctuary of Fatima, a Catholic Pilgrimage Site.
The whole place is very holy and religious. 






Our Lady of Fátima is the title given to the Virgin Mary as she appeared before three shepherd children near the village of Fátima, Portugal, in 1917. She identified herself to them as the Lady of the Rosary. The Roman Catholic Church officially recognized the Fátima events as worthy of belief in 1930. (source)  


We went inside the cathedral and it was very quiet and peaceful inside.








 

 
Video showing the pigeons suddenly flying around and above us. I felt that even the pigeons behave so religiously.
