Rua Marquês de Tomar at Nabantina city in Portugal
The City of Tomar (Cidade de Tomar) is also know as the Nabantina City (Cidade Nabantina) derived from the name Nabância, which was the former name of Tomar more than a thousand years ago. In regard to this street, some people confuse the names Rua Marquês de Tomar with Rua Marquês de Pombal. The only things in common with these two streets is that they are in Tomar, not too far away from each other and both were named after two portuguese nobleman, thought one was more famous that the other. Anyway these photos are from Rua Marquês de Tomar, a street that runs alongside Nabão River and Mouchão Park and heads in the direction of Hotel dos Templários and Varzea Pequena, which is a beautiful garden with a 19th century bandstand.
