Azenhas do Mar Review

At one chance opportunity in Sintra, I saw a photograph of an eagle-like town nested on a rock wall that was constantly battered by Atlantic waters, with orange sunlight shining through clouds. It was beautiful, and that was what the seaside town looked like in my mind: the rough Atlantic, the rocky reefs of resistance, the town in the sunset. I wanted to go here, but I didn't even know her name. Holding this photo, I consulted the hotel girl and the driver of the chartered car. It turned out that it was not far from Sintra, and the 30-minute drive was enough, and it was very convenient to drive along the coastline to Cape Rocca. So, before we set off for Cape Rocca, we set out our plan to go to Eagle's Nest. The trolley carried us and our luggage all the way west from the town of Sintra, through the mountains, through the railways, through the touristless beaches, through the bustling village fair, and we reached the edge of the town. The already slightly clear sky here in the morning became dense clouds, the sea breeze, stirring huge waves. Standing on the observation deck, in front of the endless Atlantic Ocean, the clouds and waves in the distance are connected, can not distinguish, a sailboat is driving hard; At the foot was a high cliff, the stone slope near the bottom was covered by low plants of the cactus family, and several daisies that did not know how to float here were swaying wildly in the wind; and in the distance, the eagle nest city standing on the cliff, was not moved by all this. The low houses were built on the hillside, the red roofs covered the white walls below, and the huge waves constantly pounded the rocks at the foot of the houses, and seemed to swear to break everything. A part of the observation deck was old and broken, and a lonely sea fisherman stood waiting for the fish to hook in front of the hole in the fence. The sea breeze blew his white hair and set it against the Eagle's Nest in the distance into a beautiful picture. Down from the stone steps of the observation deck, it is the original town view restaurant, but due to the rock on the rock wall in recent years, it has been closed for a long time. The restaurant's wooden house was built on the breakwater, and the Atlantic seawater kept stirring wolves on the breakwater, and the foam that poured out was thick enough to cover the rocks. The Eagle's Nest City is small in size, there are several resort hotels in the town, the weather is so cold, and few people patronize. The view of the town center is far from the cliff edge, so after a short stay here, we returned to the platform and were ready to continue moving towards Cape Rocca.
