Tem sol, chuva e neve, tem calor e frio, tem praia, campo e mar.&lt;br /&gt;O povo português é simpático, gentil, caloroso, acolhedor e hospitaleiro.&lt;br /&gt;A gastronomia portuguesa é vastíssima e riquíssima.&lt;br /&gt;Portugal tem uma história e um passado glorioso. Deu novos mundos ao mundo. Descobriu a Índia, o Brasil e o Japão, e só não descobriu a América porque os reis portugueses rejeitaram a proposta de Cristovão Colombo.&lt;br /&gt;O fado é a música tradicional portuguesa. Está para Portugal como o samba para o Brasil ou a salsa para Cuba.&lt;br /&gt;A capital de Portugal é Lisboa. Lisboa é uma das cidades mais antigas da Europa. É a cidade de Fernando Pessoa, de Amália Rodrigues ou de Luís FIGO.
