Aldeia da Ponte is a village in the District of Guarda and part of the Sabugal Municipality, Portugal. The population in 2011 was 317,〔(Instituto Nacional de Estatística )〕 in an area of 36.69 km².〔(Direção-Geral do Território )〕 ==Overview== As the summer times approach, the "natives", who had left the village years ago for several reasons, return accompanied by their "new" families, doubling (sometimes tripling) the population of the village and giving Aldeia this friendly and cordial atmosphere which cannot be depicted by words. (Aldeia da Ponte ) The inhabitants are under the patronage of Santa Maria Magdalena, holy patron of the village. In spite of appearances, a modest economic life subsists in the village; farmers, builders, carpenters and tradesmen are still quite numerous. Aldeia Da ponte provides a typical example of the small villages which cultural and historical legacies are far being uninteresting. You can choose to admire several curiosities such as a Roman Bridge that crosses the Cesarâo River and the centuries (this bridge was built to connect Alfaiates - an important military place in Roman times - and the military camp located in Aldeia which gave its name to the village.). The "Padres Marianos" Convent, the old school buildings or The Matriz Church are as many places which reveal the past. Shall I tell you about the many chapels standing here and there around the village among which the Souls Chapel, St Antonio’s Chapel, Santo Cristo’s or Santa Barbara’s dominating the village and the river. Nevertheless, there is a site, which more than any other one, attracts the crowd. Standing up proudly and robustly at the very entrance of the village, you cannot miss it: The “Bull Square” 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Aldeia da Ponte」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
