Windows of a Tourist Centre in the City of Tomar

Windows and doors, especially in old cities and towns can be colourful or dull, artistic or ugly, new and interesting or old and decrepit and sometimes they can even suggest interesting stories and tales. When I walked around the City of Tomar (Cidade de Tomar) in Portugal, I didn’t exactly plan to take photos of windows and doors. I just found them here and there in different styles, forms, textures and colours and after processing the photos I discovered that it would be interesting to create a category in this site for these type of photos. So here is a set of shots of windows of a Tourist Centre in Corredoura (Rua Serpa Pinto). In portuguese they call it “Comissão de Iniciativa e Turismo” (Committee of Initiative and Tourism).
