The monastery’s beautiful outbuildings are now city offices, amenities and private residences, but are worth seeing from the outside. You can get into the cloister, with sem...

From the terrace up here you can see Santo Tirso, the open Ave Valley and even as far as the Atlantic when the weather’s clear. Facing west, the sunsets are as idyllic as can be, and you can also get onto a signposted trail ...

There are strange fibreg...
Across the River, on the road to Vila Nova de Famalicão is a natural hot spring that emerges at a temperature of 36°C.

The waters are claimed to be good for musculoskeletal issues, arth...
This enigmatic Romanesque church is a National Monument, and was constructed by the Augustinians on land granted by King Afonso Henriques.
