If you're looking for a unique travel destination, be sure to check out Lisbon, Portugal! The Great Lisbon Earthquake occurred on November 1, 1755, and is still one of the most famous earthquakes in history. Despite it being among the most famous in the history of the world, Chris and I hadn't heard of it before our trip to the Spanish Arch in Galway, Ireland. I took World History in college and earned an A+, and I don't recall hearing anything about it.

Why is that a surprise?

The Great Lisbon Earthquake's tremors changed more than a landscape; its tremors shook up the way Enlightenment Era poets, philosophers, and scientists interpreted the world around them. November 1st is All Saints Day, a Holy Day of Obligation in the Catholic Church. Portugal is and was a Catholic country. When the earthquake devastated the city, it caused the great thinkers of the time to wonder at the meaning of the disaster's timing.

In this video, we'll tell the story of The Great Lisbon Earthquake, and show you some of the amazing sights and attractions that still remain in Lisbon today.
