    Full Version: First Time at the Hermitage: Audio Tour to the State Rooms and Masterpieces (No Ticket Included) The Hermitage is the second-largest art museum in the world. It’s easy to get lost here, as the route through all the halls stretches for 24 kilometers. That’s why this tour follows a shorter route, comfortable for those visiting for the first time. This audio guide includes only the most significant masterpieces from the collection. The audio tour begins with the state rooms of the Winter Palace and the famous Jordan Staircase. You will follow the route once taken by the personal guests of the imperial family and see the Grand State Enfilade: the Peter Hall, the Armorial Hall, and St. George Hall. Important state decisions were made in these rooms, and royal receptions and throne ceremonies were held here. After that, you will enter the room that gave the Winter Palace its name, the Hermitage, and take a close look at the Peacock Clock. Next, you will see paintings on the level of the world’s greatest collections. The Hermitage houses two original paintings by Leonardo da Vinci and the only statue by Michelangelo in Russia. A fascinating and easy walk awaits you, with an engaging story about the main masterpieces in the museum’s collection—perfect for a first visit. The tour is designed to last 2–2.5 hours.

    Leiria - 900 Years on the Frontier

    Full Version: Leiria - 900 Years on the Frontier Leiria is not a stopover between Lisbon and Porto. It is the city where Portugal was invented. On this 90-minute self-guided audio tour, you will go from the Lis River up to the royal castle on the hilltop, walking through 900 years of history. This is not just another pretty church tour. You will discover why, without Leiria, the Age of Discovery would have never happened. You will stand in front of the Moinho do Papel, the first paper mill in Portugal (1411), where the paper for Vasco da Gama's maps was made. You will stop at the small Igreja da Misericórdia, the old synagogue where, in 1496, the first book in Portugal was printed: the Almanach Perpetuum, the astronomical navigation manual Vasco da Gama used to reach India. You will see Praça Rodrigues Lobo with its 16th-century Manueline pillory where justice was served, the austere Counter-Reformation Cathedral burned by Napoleon's troops, and the last remains of the medieval wall on R. Afonso de Albuquerque. And the best part: you will go up to Leiria Castle without suffering, thanks to 2 free panoramic elevators that take you to the Miradouro da Torre Sineira, the balcony with the best view over lower Leiria. At the top, in the Gothic palace of King Dinis, the Poet King - the king who created the university, made Portuguese the official language, planted an entire forest with his own hands to stop the dunes, and wrote love songs in its tower - you will understand the whole city you just walked.

    Óbidos - The Village of the Witch Queens and the Templar Code

    Full Version: Óbidos - The Village of the Witch Queens and the Templar Code Do you think Óbidos is just a charming medieval village? You've only been told half the story. For 700 years, this walled town was the wedding gift from the Kings to their Queens. They called it the Vila das Rainhas - the Town of Queens. But it wasn't a gift of love. It was a golden prison, a laboratory of power where what was forbidden in Lisbon was practiced. On this immersive 10-stop audiotour, you will cross the Porta da Vila and enter the other side of history. You will discover: The alchemical code hidden in the blue-tiled chapel of Porta da Vila Why the Queen's aqueduct cured madness and was watched by the Inquisition The story of the feiticeiras of Óbidos, the healer women burned at the Pelourinho pillory The secret vanitas message that the painter Josefa de Óbidos left in the Igreja de Santa Maria The triangular castle and its connection to the Knights Templar The legend of the Moura Encantada who still guards a treasure beneath the walls The hexagonal sanctuary, a Christianized pagan temple with the Seal of Solomon This is not a history tour. It's an investigation into female power, alchemy, and the secrets that the stones still keep.
