Full description
Come and submerge yourself in the sacred. Start from Lisbon on a half-day tour to Fatima, a rural region that was completely unknown before the happenings of 1917. Three young children, shepherds that used to take their sheep to Iria Valley, near Fatima village, witnessed the apparition of the Virgin Mary for the first time on the 13th of May 1917. After that, the apparitions took place every months, on the 13th of every month, until October of 1917. On this last apparition about 70000 pilgrims witnessed a miracle, when the sun seemed to move in circles. The young shepherds said that the Virgin Mary told them that Humanity should pray everyday for peace and for the conversion of the sinners.
Visit, in addition to the Basilica of Our Lady of the Rosary, the Chapel of the Lausperene, a great oak tree (near which the Marian Apparitions occurred), a monument to the Sacred Heart of Jesus and the Chapel of the Apparitions, where three children Lucia Santos and her cousins, Jacinta and Francisco Marto, were first visited by Mary.
