Convento dos Capuchos (or, The Convent of the Caped Monks)

Capuchos means capes or hoods. Capuchinho Vermelho: Little Red Riding Hood. Os Capuchos: hooded Franciscan monks.

I just visited Capuchos, an old monastery made out of cork and rock. It's a labyrinth, full of little nooks and cranies. In my comic, you might learn about the monks' life there.
