Fábrica de Brinquedos

TIME : 2016/2/18 23:38:49

The school in this little hamlet near Alte had fallen into disuse because there weren't enough children. There wasn't much work around either, so three local women decided to learn a craft and put the building to use. It's now a workshop where they make charming wooden toys, and is a heart-warming place to visit.

From Alte, head up the hill, past the Hotel Alte on the road to Santa Margarida, then take a left turn.
