On the way...
Ferro is a Portuguese village, the human settlement of which dates from the Roman times. It's located in the Central Region of Portugal. The Romans are said to have named the village after the Latin word Ferrum.
Let's wander throughout this village, far from the bustling city life. Time flies slowly, people ignore what being in a hurry means...
Nowadays. we can still find several remains from those times, such as Menirs. Reading the word Menir, I guess your mind goes immediately to Obelix, from the comic book Astérix, who used the huge stones to defeat the Romans!
The cross is pointing to the north
Cherries play an important role in the local economy. There are over 60 cherry-producing family farms. These cover a total area that makes it be Portugal's largest cherry orchard....
