This small yet beautiful Portuguese town is located in the north of the country - an ‘untouched’ part of Portugal that not many foreigners have caught sight of. With its growing number of manor houses, Ponte de Lima is catering more for tourists while at the same time showcasing its historical attractions.

See:

• Medieval Bridge – this 277 metre long bridge is designed with many arches and crosses over the Lima River.
• Fountain at Ponte de Lima’s main square (Largo de Camoes) dating back to 1603..
• Churches – some of the more popular ones being Igreja de S. Francisco and Santo Antonio dos Capuchos.

Experience:

• Local Market – every second Monday the town hosts an extensive market along the riverbank offering everything from cattle and farm tools to fresh fish, fruit, bread and pastries.
