On this tour I will unveil to you the secrets of Fátima, its Sanctuary and the untold history only known by the local people since my family and ancestors are from that area. Fátima is the religious capital of Portugal and is the place where Our Lady appeared to the 3 children on the 13th. of May 1917, two of them, Francisco and Jacinta - beatified by John Paul II on May 13, 2002. Almost 6 Million people visit Fátima all year round. The new Basilica of the Holy Trinity is considered to be the 4th. biggest Catholic temple in the world with almost 9. 000 seats. The Church has been designed by Greek Orthodox architect Alexandros Tombazis. In the front side of the altar, there is a piece of marble from the tomb of the Apostle Peter (over which the Basilica of the St. Peter was built, in the Vatican). We will end our holy tour near to Fátima, at Valinhos, we will see the houses of the 3 shepherds. *The Pilgrim's package" will be my special gift to you *
We will depart from Lisbon directly to Fátima on the highway A1. The trip will take us about 1. 30 hrs. one way (130km one way). Once arrived the guide will explain everything about the site, the basilicas and will visit the Museum* in Fátima. It is one of the well kept secrets unknown to most of the visitors. Among other displayed items ist the crown bearing the bullet removed from Pope J. Paulo II after the murder attempt on 13 May 1981, in St. Peter's Square in Vatican City. Apparitions Chapel-1919 Basilica of the Rosary-1928 Basilica of the most Holy Trinity-2007 Millions of pilgrims go there to pay their promises, to pray or just to feel its mystical strength! The Sanctuary Square is so big that it can only be described by numbers: it can receive simultaneously 300. 000 to 500. 000 visitors and it's almost twice the size of St. Peter's Square in the Vatican. We will also drive to Valinhos, in the neighbourhood, where we have the opportunity to visit the houses of the 3 shepherds. Return to Lisbon
