Photographer’s Note

- For me the word Várzea allways had the meaning of emptiness, of a plain dirty field with nothing else but sunlight. The Várzea plain allways existed in the low part of Torres Vedras city and nothing but the S. Pedro fair and the circus tents (when in town) were placed in that place.
- After posting this photo i was thinking about some explanation about the transformation ocurred there a few years ago, the name of the place changed to Várzea Green Field and now is full of grass and trees, where the city habitants jog, cycle, and do all kind of ludic activities.
- The curiosity about the name Várzea came when i searched it in the ditionary and the resut is that Várzea meant for a field that floods sometimes in the year, and the translation to english is fertile valley.
- Well whe are allways learning ...
- In the photo besides the green field, we can also see the city Castle and the church of Santa Maria do Castelo.
