I'm from Portugal. I live near the city of Coimbra in a little town called Luso, which as some termal water, bottled water enterprise, some beautifull Chalé. . . It is placed in the steps of a mountain full of history, because in the 1600 a religious monastic order made here a monastery and a beautifull forest. In 1810 It was fought here a great battle with the napoleonic forces against a cohalition of portuguese and british forces. So we had here Massena with the french 3rd campaign to portugal and in the other side the Duke of Wellington.
Later, in late 1800 and early 1900, the last king of Portugal built here, over the convent, a palace which it is today a hotel.
