Portuguese Rome

Referred to as the Portuguese Rome for its number churches, Braga represents an old town that today is the country's third-largest city. Situated in northwest Portugal, Braga boasts many narrow pedestrian streets, plazas, and spiritual pilgrimage destinations. Visit any or all of the city's famed cathedrals, including a hillside religious retreat and its recognizable Baroque staircase. Braga transforms after the sun goes down, when students from the nearby university flood the town's bars and cafes. Braga is in Braga District. Make your own Braga vacation itinerary, with a little help from those that know the place like the back of their hands, by using our Portugal trip builder site .
