It is the first card I got from this city, it is also on the UNESCO list. It is a panoramic view and unfortunately I could not scan the third and last part.





Political centre of the Grand Duchy of Lithuania from the 13th to the end of the 18th century, Vilnius has had a profound influence on the cultural and architectural development of much of eastern Europe. Despite invasions and partial destruction, it has preserved an impressive complex of Gothic, Renaissance, Baroque and classical buildings as well as its medieval layout and natural setting.

It has been almost an half year ago that I received my last card from Portugal . I was happy when I found this card in my mailbox, which shows us the Cathedral of Porto. It has traveld a distance of 1,563 km in 11 days.



The city of Oporto, built along the hillsides overlooking the mouth of the Douro river, is an outstanding urban landscape with a 2,000-year history. Its continuous growth, linked to the sea (the Romans gave it the name Portus, or port), can be seen in the many and varied monuments, from the cathedral with its Romanesque choir, to the neoclassical Stock Exchange and the typically Portuguese Manueline-style Church of Santa Clara.
