Blog de Viagem: Descubra a Rica História e Cultura de Portugal

Portugal is one of those countries that feels larger than its size. The atmosphere changes quickly: Lisbon’s light, Porto and Gaia on opposite banks of the Douro, the quiet riverfront in Amarante, the university streets of Coimbra, the high plateaus of Serra da Estrela, and the Atlantic coast of the Algarve. These Portugal itineraries grew out of my travels across the country. Some help with the practical choices of a first visit, such as spending three days in Lisbon or exploring Porto and Gaia. Others follow smaller towns, mountain landscapes, and the legends of Amarante that add another dimension to the trip. Explore all my Portugal articles below.
