In Barcelos, we immerse ourselves in the heart of minhoto craftsmanship and the legend of the Galo de Barcelos.

We tour the Largo do Apoio and the Matriz Church, where history and faith cross. If it is a fair day (Thursday), we experience the vibrant Mercado de Barcelos, one of the largest and most traditional in the country, full of local products and crafts. We also took advantage of to know the heritage linked to the traditional olaria, and to taste the local sweets. An authentic and cultural moment, in one of the most genuine cribs of Minho.

In Ponte de Lima, the oldest village in Portugal, we will discover the perfect harmony between history, wine and landscape. We start with a stroll through the charming historic centre, where the iconic Roman-Medieval bridge crosses the serene river Lima.
