Visigoths and Moors, and there, the visitor will discover the longstanding traditions and culture of the local people, who always welcome the visitors with great kindness.

Visits to Viseu, Guarda, Belmonte, Covilhã and Castelo Branco will take you back to the historical past of Portugal. The Serra da Estrela Natural Park is indeed charming. A visit to keep in one’s memory.

As you travel along the coast, the visitor will meet Aveiro, a city over water, famous for its haff delta, a 60 km long lake, neighbouring the sea. The famous Vista Alegre porcelain, comparable with the ones of Sèvres or Limoges, was born here. And soon you will meet Coimbra, the historical head Office of one of the most ancient and prestiged Universities of Europe. Not far from Coimbra stand the remainings of Conímbriga, the millenary Villae Romana, from the Iron Age, with its tiles where, once more, history prevails.
In the Atlantic coast, Figueira da Foz is one of the most beautiful Portuguese beaches, the well-known “Praia da Claridade”.
