Salinas de Rio Maior
The Rio Maior Salt Pans are a natural phenomenon, far away from the sea, still working nowadays and for at least 900 years. The water from this spring is seven times more salty than sea water, and some say that these salt pans were already explored by Romans and Moors.
In this old quarry you will find dinosaur footprints belonging to the Middle Jurassic Period, with about 170 million years age. The owners of such footprints were recognized as theropod dinosaurs (2 feet ) and sauropods (4 feet ).
Algar do Pena
Discovered in 1985, the Algar do Pena cave is a 35 meters deep pothole with a huge chamber at the bottom. This is the biggest natural chamber of Portugal and where you can find numerous speleothems.
