An amazing sight
The truth is I don't know what prompted me to take a detour to Sendim village, but I found a really incredible place! Sendim is a parish of Miranda of Douro, which is about 20 km away and located in the International Douro Natural Park - Los Arribes del Duero. It has about 1,500 inhabitants, the economy is mainly rural - crops (olive groves and vineyards) and livestock. At the village entrance there is an agricultural cooperative that gives the town its biggest economic boost. It has many services/facilities (post office, stores, school, health center, soccer field, cultural center, bank, swimming pools, a small rural hotel, firefighters, etc.) and even a very famous Inter-celtic music festival (last week of July or first week of August) with international significance.
