Tourism in Portugal

When it comes to eating well, Viseu is the ideal destination for the most demanding tastes. 

The island of Morraceira, located in Figueira da Foz, is a highly fascinating place in terms of bird-watching interest. 

Being Portugal a dominantly Catholic country, Easter time has a deep-rooted meaning with several celebrations taking place in all regions. Center of Portugal is no exception. From the coastline to the inland, namely in Ovar, Fundão and Idanha-a-Nova, locals live this time of the year with great devotion and spirit of community. A celebration filled with meaningful rituals, heart-felt religiosity and enduring traditions whose origins get lost in time.

Apart from its unquestionable value, the precious Crown of Our Lady of Fátima owns a deep symbolic meaning. It contains a non-precious element: the bullet of the assassination attempt on Pope John Paul II.  Definitely, the most important piece treasured by the Shrine of Fátima.
