Alto Rabagão

In spite of the windy weather, it was a good experience to feel the breeze from this big lake, and be closer to nature.
Baixo Gerês

The several lakes surrounded by the Geres mountains made up such a beautiful landscape, that it made me want to stay there endlessly...
São Bento da Porta Aberta

A quiet sanctuary located in a beautiful mountainside near the Geres lakes...
Mixões da Serra

One of the funniest parts of the trip: we were completely lost inside the mountains, going on circles, when we found this little village with a really high viewpoint, where there was so much wind thatRead more
Ponte da Barca

A cozy town by the river Lime, which, despite the bad weather, was quite impressive: I was not expecting a lot of it, but the visit was worth it.
Arcos de Valdevez

The second best city of the trip; the river and the parks nearby were so beautiful... besides, it was really calm and relaxing..

Vila Nova de Cerveira

A tiny village near the Minho, with quiet streets and a strange castle (it had plastic spiders and other insects).
Caminha

Really quiet town near both the sea and the river. Its fresh air and quiet streets were certainly its high points.
Ponte de Lima

Best city I visited in this trip. When we crossed the long bridge on the sunset, it was beautiful to hear the calm sound of bells ringing from the church towers, while listening to the water flowRead more
