The Central Region of Portugal offers travelers a variety of beautiful destinations. From the mountain ranges, granite villages and the countryside, to the fishing villages and modern beaches, which are paradises for lovers of water sports. And here and there, a rich heritage that tells the history of the region.
Several of the cities of the North Region possess World Heritage of Humanity declared monuments. Like the University of Coimbra, the Monastery of Alcobaça, the Convent of Christ in Tomar or the Monastery of Batalha. But there are many other places worth visiting, such as the Historic Villages, created and built with granite and shale. Villages such as Linhares da Beira, Piodao or Marialva, preserve stories and conquests and dazzle for their castles and surrounding landscapes.
You should also visit the medieval village of Óbidos, the university city of Coimbra, the estuary in Aveiro, or the architecture of Castelo Branco, Guarda or Viseu. In the mountains of the Sierra de la Estrella with infinite landscapes and glacial lakes. Besides discovering nature, you can practice outdoor activities, such as climbing, rafting or canoeing. And for surfers, there are the beaches of the Atlantic coast, especially in Peniche and Nazaré.
Then recover your energy with delicious cheeses, sausages, stews, as well as wines from the region.
