Portugal, Sintra: Just an ordinary space for passers-by to sit and rest, or contemplate. A circlular wall, a bench, a few trees, light and shade. Beautiful simplicity. I stayed for a while to think about Sintra - which had achieved a UNESCO World Heritage Site award some years previously and well deserved it is too. This town is a truly magnificent example of the creation of outstanding architecture, combined with a deep respect for nature and man.
