The Achadas da Cruz cable car takes you down from a high precipice to the tiny village Fajá da Quebrada Nova. This is the steepest cable car in Europe with a trip length of 600 meters and a vertical drop of 450 meters.
The Calhau Snack Bar is at the top of the precipice where you will get into the cable car.

Strawbery Banke is an outdoor history museum located in Portsmouth, New Hampshire. It is the oldest neighborhood in New Hampshire to be settled by Europeans, and the earliest neighborhood remaining in the present-day city of Portsmouth. It features more than 37 restored buildings built between the 17th and 19th centuries in the Colonial, Georgian, and Federal style architectures. The buildings once clustered around a waterway known as Puddle Dock, which was filled in around 1900. Today the former waterway appears as a large open space.

Stop by the nearby Prescott Park
Prescott Park is a ten-plus acre waterfront park in Portsmouth, New Hampshire. The land was donated to the city of Portsmouth by two sisters, Josie and Sarah Prescott in 1940. The sisters, public school teachers, had used an inheritance to systematically purchase and clear properties along the Piscataqua River. The sisters’ goal was to create a public waterfront park, free and accessible to all, replacing what had become a run-down and seedy industrial area.

The Portsmouth Love Lock Wall is in the parking lot for the park
Inspired by the famous “Love Locks Bridge” in Paris, France cities around the world are copying the trend and making their own versions. One of the most recent examples is in the parking area for Prescott Park in Portsmouth, New Hampshire.
