Location Summary
Viana do Castelo / Areosa area
The history of Viana started on Monte de Santa Luzia on which there is now a modern temple. For the young and fit the climb to the top of the dome (Zimborium) will be memorable.
Behind the temple there is a Pousada standing next to the old hill top village with the remains of many Celtic stone huts. This old village was inhabited from about 2000 BC until 1500 AD.
Its decline began with the Roman invasion of Portugal since the Roman legions had to be fed and to achieve this they made the hunter/gatherers living in these hilltop Celtic villages move down into the valleys to become farmers.
Explorers and colonists set sail from Viana but its wealth came from trade with Brazil and the town and countryside has many fine houses built by these wealthy men. Many of them have partially opened to the public, in return for state funds for restoration, by operating a very high class bed and breakfast establishment. The Praca da Republica, which is just outside the old part of the town, is a fine square with the old miseriacordia and the former town hall.
The Costa Verde region
The enchanting beauty of its landscape is truly astonishing - vineyards, sandy beaches, tranquil riverside towns, busy market's, beaches and Europe's great wilderness - Peneda-Geres National Park . Minho, Northern Portugal
Portugal's most fertile region lies between the Spanish province of Galicia to the north and the Douro Valley to the south. Occupying the country's north western corner, the lush green Minho region is often described as Costa Verde (Green Coast), a reference to the lush green and well watered landscape. It is an area of great natural beauty with acres of green forests, many rivers, profilic vineyards (grapes are grown everywhere) and historic towns.
A beautiful mix of sweeping bays and beaches, some anonymous and deserted, others well known such as Ofir, Moledo and Esposende. Crystal clear rivers and lagoons, perfect for swimming, can also be found in the Minho area. Minho's landscape has an artistic diversity (Romanesque, Gothic, Manueline and Baroque) well displayed in the many chapels, churches and monasteries in the valleys of Minho, Lima, Cavado and Ave rivers. Bordered by Spain is Portugal's only official national park, the Peneda-Geres. Barcelos town centre
