Summary
[edit]DescriptionQuinta das Lágrimas - Coimbra - Portugal (4723512123).jpg |
A Quinta das Lágrimas está indissociavelmente ligada a El Rei D. Pedro e a Dª Inês de Castro. E apesar de a mais conhecida história de amor dita em Português não ter ocorrido na Quinta das Lágrimas, à época "Quinta do Pombal", algumas das mais belas páginas da literatura portuguesa encarregaram-se de tornar a "Quinta das Lágrimas" o cenário da sorte e do infortúnio dos amores de Pedro e Inês. A Quinta das Lágrimas ocupa uma área de 18, 3 hectares e situa-se na margem esquerda do Mondego. É fundamentalmente uma área ajardinada em torno do Palácio do Séc. XIX e um bosque situado na encosta a sul. Na propriedade existem duas nascentes que foram compradas pela Rainha Isabel de Aragão para abastecer de água, através de um pequeno aqueduto, o Mosteiro de Santa Clara-a-Velha e, naturalmente, o Paço Real, que ficavam ali bem perto. A existência de duas caleiras - uma directamente ligada à mina e consequentemente à Fonte Primitiva cujo acesso é marcado por uma porta do Século XIV e a outra ligada à chamada Fonte da Tradição - que se unem no "Cano dos Amores", permitindo que a água transportasse as mensagens que iam e vinham do Paço Real. Foi também essa água que ficou vermelha após a morte de Dª. Inês. Na verdade há uma alga chamada Hildenbrandia Rivularis que vive na água doce e é vermelha. O Jardim da Quinta das Lágrimas é constituído maioritariamente por espécies exóticas, algumas das quais com mais de duzentos anos. Recentemente, foi ainda criado um Jardim Medieval, em homenagem aos amores de Pedro e Inês. Trata-se do primeiro jardim medieval em Portugal e o seu projecto é da autoria da Arquitecta Cristina Castel-Branco. O objectivo foi criar um ambiente de clausura e simplicidade, para o qual foram seleccionadas cerca de cinquenta espécies de plantas diferentes, cuja existência já antes da época dos Descobrimentos é largamente comprovada por gravuras e documentos da época. <a href="http://www.turismo-centro.pt/espaco/ver.php?id=26" rel="nofollow">www.turismo-centro.pt/espaco/ver.php?id=26</a> Quinta das Lágrimas (IPA: [ˈkĩtə dəʒ ˈlagriməʃ]) is an estate in Coimbra, Portugal. It was classified in 1977 as an "Imóvel de Interesse Publico" (En: Building of Public Interest) by the IPPAR. It includes 12 ha(29.6 acres) of gardens and a palace that has been converted into a luxury hotel. History The origin of the estate is uncertain. It is known that it was a hunting ground for the Portuguese royal family and that it later belongued of the University of Coimbra and afterwards to a religious order. It was acquired by the Osório Cabral de Castro family in 1730, by whose order the palace was built. In 1879 a large part of the palace was lost during a fire. It was rebuilt in the late nineteenth century by Miguel Osório Cabral de Castro, in a style different from that of the original. Building The palace building has a central body and two lateral ones. The lateral bodies feature a balcony with a railing of square columns on their façade. To the right there is a chapel. The "Fonte das Lágrimas" (En: Fountain of Tears), which according to the legend originated from the tears shed by Inês de Castro when she was killed, is located close to the spring identified by António de Vasconcelos, and which entry features a broken arch, probably from the fourteenth century. <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quinta_das_L%c3%a1grimas" rel="nofollow">en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quinta_das_L%c3%a1grimas</a> <a href="http://loc.alize.us/#/flickr:4723512123" rel="nofollow">See where this picture was taken.</a> <a href="https://www.flickr.com/groups/geotagging/discuss/72157594165549916/">[?]</a> |
