Portugal and Spain Tour (1 Viewer)

[blaster]

Hi All,

I just came back from a very long and memorable tour of part of the Iberian Peninsula. I'd like to share some aspects of my trip on this site with kindred souls.

I came across a surprise Military Museum in Lisbon. It turned out to be housed in a very interesting building and boasts one of the largest collection of artillery pieces in the world. Free Entry!
