😊 You two so funny drinking the port. I would've too. Why not? Who's going to know.
😂 only all of us!
Danny and Lesley are the Team .... never separate this great work team
I agree
I have been watching you for a couple years and I have to say your amazing. I love how you explain everything for us clueless Americans that never had gotten to travel to see anything like you show. I want to thank you for that.
I think they left all those clothes because they only took what they could take if they did “flee” and what did they care about leaving any of that behind? When you are rich all those material items can be replaced.
Loved the tiled kitchen! I can just see how people lived. Wonder if they will ever see the video you guys made. They would appreciate the respect and appreciation shown.
They probably appreciate it more if these strong younger generation would keep/clean up the beautiful houses that they show/tour😊
Danny you need to be congratulated on your camera work - you have incredible control and other explorers could learn from you! Gill 🇬🇧
I agree,makes it most enjoyable to watch! I actually get motion sick 🤮 watching some others videos from the way they film!
I agree 100%
The filming allows you to get a very clear view as if you are there with them. Thank you Danny for your great work!
Lesley (sorry if the spelling is wrong) is also a fantastic story teller and narrator with how he shows us through his eyes what he is experiencing and seeing.
Love these guys!
It breaks my heart to see these beautiful abandoned residences. The reason is sometimes simple, you should know that in Portugal, when the parents are deceased, the children do not pay inheritance rights, so they do not have the need to sell or maintain the property to pay notary fees, resulting in thousands of abandoned houses in Portugal!
Is that so? That's sad. It breaks my heart too. I always dream about how life used to be when original owners lived at those places.
Really! How odd and wasteful, considering the recent hardships for Portuguese in paying rent or buying homes. I read that's one reason why they pushed government to change golden visa system - foreigners were driving up prices of rent & purchase. Many citizens are on weak minimum wage, read a story of a nurse working double shifts and about to be evicted from her apartment due to increased rent. And Indian labour flocking in masses plus wealthy indians (who get rich from corruption & theft) make it worse for locals,

YES Bros of Decay hello my friend and I will be back friend thankyou somuch good Bless
It would be so cool if one of the family members stumbled across this and told you why they left lol
Yessss. ❤
Might be useful to grab a walking stick. When I wander the woods I use one both for stability and "catching" webs so my face doesn't have to. Best of luck exploring!
Yes, I sometimes pick up a stick when I walk in the woods, to catch spider webs (at times they are more frequent). I use to call it "spider stick". 😊
I totally agree about the stick! Great for knocking down webs. 😊
Y’all should have drank at least 3 sips a piece!❤😅
Are y’all going to check the third part?
Thank you bros of Decay for showing me that beautiful place that once was back then
Exploração maravilhosa!! O meu pais foi colonizado por portugueses. A capital onde moro é nomeada "Cidade dos azulejos" temos inúmeros casarões com fachadas de azulejos portugueses. De séculos atrás. Me senti em casa com a exploração tudo muito peculiar (risos)
Thank you very much! God blessing ❤🇧🇷💋
When i had visited Portugal, the family i visited had a corner fireplace in the guest bedrm. It is the only country where i have actually seen this. .. yes, marble is very inexpensive in Portugal, or at least when i visited. A relative had some furniture pieces topped w/marble, then shipped back to the states.
I always say that you guys go that extra mile for your viewers, dressing up in period clothes, doing great research and now sipping what I can only assume was smooth port. One of the best explorations yet!
I loved this adventure. I hope you finished that fine bottle of port later. Thank you both for documenting these once grand homes.
Yay! Leslie drank the wine! 🍾 okay, porte.
Lesley, I too would have taken a sip of the Port. Even taken the rest home! I know you don't steal things but why leave it to waste. Awesome one guys! Shout out to Danny for his great camera work.❤👍
Obrigada, rapazes, por esta maravilhosa exploração. É triste ver tantas memórias abandonadas... Lesley fez uma pequena travessura ao beber o vinho, porém será algo que ficará ternamente guardado na memória. Parabéns pelo belíssimo trabalho. ❤
thank you for another amazing video. Lesley, you and Danny are so fabulous together documenting things of the past
Thank you for remembering Danny's name. I was struggling so in my comment so I didn't even mention Leslie because I didn't want to slight either of them. They were both complimentary to each other and teamed up well.
I love how they are both so polite …….
How do you find all these fascinating places? Ever wonder how they got that lawnmower up that narrow staircase?
Did he really just lay that bottle back down like he wasn’t going to drink the rest of it? 😂🤣😂.. pick that dang thing up and bring it with you. For the sake of the family.!!! 😆
Thank you Lesley for sharing us with you this video and love all your videos
Lesley, thank you for helping us watch the Cryptic Abandoned Portuguese Mansion virtually and hello to Danny! 👋
Howdy Gentleman What a grand tour of this time capsule :) Danny you are great with camera thank you . Leslie you are so great on respecting peoples home and items:). Love you to Leslie have a great week ahead and looking for the next explore you shall do?:)THANK YOU LESLIE AND DANNY.
Premium work! I love every one of your explorations, and this one was no exception. Job well done, and thank you both!
Thank you Lesley and Danny! Such a beautiful video and great place..I appreciate you taking me places I'll never get to see.. just amazing! Love from Texas❤🤠
Such a beautiful Very large place! Sadly its decaying.
I enjoy the exploration of these abandoned places and the items still inside.
I love watching you both, you are both so cute and fun. You guys are a great team!
So funny Leslie when you tasted the 🍷 and Danny's reaction to you as you were getting ready to sip it, then Danny's reaction when you told him to taste it.
Its nice that Danny knows so much about Portugal too😊
Thanks guys for always having great explorations, I really enjoy them, always ready for another
Take care, stay safe, see you in the next one 🎉
Well, Danny is from Portugal so sure he knows much about that country. 😊
Did you know you can have the wine analyzed for chemical make up and reproduce the exact recipe? My friends did this with Roses bourbon. The barrels, if filled, can be worth up to 10,000. Dollars each. They contain years of work to get perfection. I really enjoyed this video. Also the jugs laying around are highly collectible and sell for big bucks.
I'm wondering how the Port tasted,an wonderful place, love the tiles the looking handmade.
My favorite is the hidden wine cellar.
I was young and went in Germany on the Mosel river Close to a wine cellar to sample wine.
The deeper I went the better an aged the wine was. As I went outside I feeling the alcohol taking full effect 😞.
That Porto cellar was awesome!! Great video once again guys! One of my favorite channels!
Amei esta exploração em Portugal!😍
Thanks a lot for everything and regards from Brasil!😘
Hello Leslie n Danny....lovely to see you exploring together. Beautiful video Leslie. Thank you both. Take care. Wine tasting was nice to watch.
I don’t blame you, I would have wanted to try it to. And if it’s good of course 2-3 drinks are required. 😂
You finally took a swig...good man!!
The move from Portugal to Germany is perplexing… thank you for the tour!!
I was happy to see you honor and drink the homemade Port!! 🍷. I Love Your Videos. With Love from America 🙏🇺🇲💞. P.S. I love and enjoy the European way. Of course my Ancestors are European. I'm Welsh and Dutch. A small amount of Native American.
Just awesome.. Id rather live back in time, then now. Ty for letting me dream.. 💫
I know me too😊
I love every single house you do on Portugal Leslie, it is stunning over there! Thank you so much grom an older US person who never managed to get abroad, your videos make it the next best thing!❤️👍❤️❤️
Hi Lesley and Danny, a likely reason for a family in business to suddenly flee the country and not sell their house could be bankruptcy.
Bro Leslie, just so you know for future reference, the best way to uncork a wine bottle, especially Champagne, is to firmly grasp the cork, then twist the bottle and not the cork. This is especially important for Champagne because it will prevent the cork from causing damage to the ceiling, amongst other things like lights, chandeliers, etc.
Great Video Lesley & Danny! Love & Prayers for you both!
Lesley and Danny thank you all wonderful mansion. I enjoy your videos
Next time if I’m in Portugal, I need to join you guys. I love this type of things looking for abandoned places.
This was a fabulous house. Thank you both for showing it to us. You have to sip the port. There is just no getting around it. LOL!!
I can’t stop watching your videos since randomly discovering my first one a few days ago! These homes are so priceless and it is so astonishing that these families have never come back to take anything!
Wow some sure had an artistic gene! They had a true gift of drawing ❤
SO GLAD you tasted it!!
It breaks my heart to see a lot of antique furniture just rotting away . Just don't understand how people can leave beautiful things behind .
Des jolis armoires et buffet tout en bois sculpté envahissant les dépôts et personne en veut plus . . .
A hidden wine cellar? Maybe a secret stash they didn't want to declare?
Well, you could clearly see it from the yard, with a window you can easyliy look through, so I don't think it was supposed to be secret.
@@christerstabis3187, I thought the window was in like a hallway. Oh, a courtyard entryway? But it's a strange window, not meant to be looked through, but to appear to be something more like a drainage vent? If someone looked in there they might not know what they were looking at. 32:25
@@patriciamariemitchel Yes, the window may be for venting. I don't know. But it is the wine cellar, as he says in the video, right after your time mark. As long as someone got light there would be easy to see that it is a wine cellar. So I still don't think it is secret, unless there was another wall outside of the window in an earlier age (which I can not see right now there has been).
You had me rolling when you were drinking that wine you found in the cellar! OMG too funny XD
I can't believe you didn't take that bottle of wine I know its amazing by the look on your face when you drank it!
Another fabulous video! You two are my favorite! One question: why doesn’t the family allow someone to take the books to a library and sell the furniture and paintings and give the money to an orphanage or a charity????
Leslie or Danny, has anyone ever commented that you explored their property? That would be so interesting. "Hey, that's my home!" 😮😊
Greetings Lesley and Danny! This one was amazing!! I was so excited when you discovered the secret stairs! That moment was absolutely priceless in the dusty ancient secret wine cellar! You never take anything and I think you are honoring the family by drinking the wine. I know they wouldn’t want all their hard work going to waste! Cheers! Love you both! ♥️😘🥂
I love Lesley and Danny tandem. Thank you for the another wonderful video again! Mabuhay from the Philippines! Love love guys!
Guys..i like all your videos.
But.. What I like most (and admire this) is your joy, the satisfaction of exploring these abandoned places..
Good luck!
TAMBÉM GOSTEI. ABRAÇOS AOS PORTUGUESES, EU OS ADORO. E VC TBM.
Wonderful video Lindsay and Danny. Very brave tasting the wine down below. Look forward to the next venture.
Geweldig! Jullie videos zijn echt van geweldige kwaliteit net dat stukje extra. Love it!
Port with a slice of orange is bliss ❤
you guys are so funny, fascinating place and zila was a wonderful artist.
Definitely not for a person of girth(wide)to climb that staircase to attic !!🤔😄 TFS !!!!
I’m not familiar with “ port”. But now I’m gona have to give that a try. Hope you all stay safe !
I'm literally in love with this home.
Lesley and Danny!!! You both are such beautiful young men and THANK YOU for all the explorations you provide for us. You two are just sooooo magnificent!! Be safe 🙏🙏❤️❤️
The moment with wine was so cool😄I also want to have a sip!
This was fun and a really unusual home. Thank you both!
Thanks for sharing a great Mansion. 👍
Thanks for posting another amazing abandoned home. The Portuguese tile in the large kitchen is spectacular!
Helo I like very much your Work.
I`m portuguese and was like who I saw of your work in Portugal.
The picture in the office in the house of Mr. JOSE SILVA with four men, these men were responsible for the revolution in Portugal on the 25th of April.
Have a good luck to your job
Loved the secret stairs!
I can't wait to watch it....😍Love u Lesley......🇲🇨
Boa noite, amei o vídeo! Impressionante como as pessoas vão embora e deixam tudo pra trás assim! Meus bisavos eram Portugueses, vieram de navio de Portugal logo após a Primeira Guerra. Obrigada pelo vídeo, me veio boas lembranças!❤
Another video well done.guys! I was hoping you two would finish that bottle of wine! Once opened it will go to waste!
Thank you Leslie and Danny. I love it when you guys work together. It was a beautiful home and a beautiful video. I must admit, I would have tasted the Porto too! I can't wait till the next adventure!
Hoot hoot! Jealous!😅
So glad you were able to taste it! It's a tragedy all that goes to waste when these people abandon these beautiful places. Blessings💗🙏
A beautiful video I appreciate it so much Leslie and Danny. I have to be honest though some that beautiful stuff just going to waste and no one taking care of it seems so heartless and there are some gorgeous pieces of furniture in there. And imagine having a painter an artist in the family. that good and you haven't taken any of the work. It really breaks my heart. Thank you again for taking me along with you on this trip, it has been absolutely amazing...with love from me to you ❤
Oo a secret room mansion looks amazing. Can't wait for this documentary 🎉 ❤️
Sorry I missed the live stream today. This Portuguese home was lovely.
You can just picture what their life was like
I’m sure they would not have bothered them if you told that bottle of homemade Porto. I’ve heard it called Port and it was a female drink for after dinner but there wasn’t many acceptable drinks for women at least in England in the 1700’s! Good Job boys! I would love to know what reason they had to sneak out of the country.
I would DEFINITELY taste the wine🍾🥂😁
I would drink ig too,I lovd porto wine ,Lesley take Danny s advise and go to Óbidos and try the gingilha ,it’s so amazing I fell in lovd s it years ago I allways have to get a couple bottles,I’m going to Portugal in a few mos I can’t wait
That’s a gorgeous kitchen I love it so much
I love the way you respect and admire the places you visit. It's very interesting and educational.
On the other side, I hate those videos where people want to explore "the dark side" of so-called "haunted" places, seeking for signs of spirits, voices, etc.
Yes it's wrong and demonic
Thanks for bringing a breath of quietness and exploring. I needed your video today!!!
Leslie you just make such amazing videos and you are very respectful of the people who lived in these homes thank you for sharing their stories I just love the way you portray their lives god’s blessings always 💛💜🩶🤎🧡🖤🩷💚♥️❤️😊💙🤍🙏great job
I’m so pleased that you tasted the Port. ❤
I do enjoy you and Danny together I love you guys. I pray for your safety on these rotten floors.
Nice tour. Glad you didn't die from that wine ! Risky...
I am guessing this family left Portugal 🇵🇹in a hurry because of tax back payments to the government and they don’t want the government to come after and take everything they had, it’s a very nice home and I really like the basement with the wine cellar area, 🍷, your guys are amazing to test the wine, I wish I could have a taste too lol , it must be a good bottle of wine because of the age of the wine, love the designs of the house also , thank you for sharing
I have been subscribed to some time. I don't always comment but this was incredible research. Stay safe and blessings, always. ❤💐
Amazing work, you guys! So much fun to watch, so many beautiful things! I don’t care for alcohol, but that moment in a dusty wine cellar was magical! Also, the picture made to cover the electrical box blew me away, such a cool trick
Obrigada por essa postagem com legenda em português.
I wonder if they were involved in something illegal, that is why they left!
I was laughing so hard when you both tasted the portal. Thank you for the wonderful entertainment!
I think someone in the family was in trouble with the law and they were literally running for their lives. Purely speculation but why else
Wouldn’t you come back or sell the house? Or avoiding a family secret being exposed?
Me encanta tus vídeos y también como describes los detalles tienes una voz agradable
Who knows why these people just left never to return. Very strange. That was great when you both tryed the wine. I wondered if you guys would ever do that. Im sure it was good. I would have tryed it with you both. Good show this week. Hey stay safe we will see you next week. Thanks
Wow what a hidden gem!
A truly fascinating glimpse into the past, the abandoned mansion of a wealthy Portuguese family. Nice work. Thanks.

I clicked "Like"....because it was another amazing video.
I love the tenderness you both show for the house and the lives of the people who have since passed. If I had seen this house by myself I would not think too much about it, but you have a way of bringing these houses back to life. You are a great historian in that you recreate what life might have been for the people in the house and suddenly the place feel so human and leaves me with a touch of sadness for the inhabitants who are long gone.
It makes it so cool to explore these houses with you both.
Well done!
