Coimbra
The Portuguese
city of Coimbra is well known for its university and the royal palace.
Both can be reached by climbing a big hill. When having a look at
the ancient books you realize that Coimbra used to be a centre of
power.
The old chambers
of the palace are still used by the university to promote Phd's.
The last time I was at Coimbra an actual Phd promotion session was
going on and tourists (like myself) could have a look.
