Lines of Torres: an historical route
The Lines of Torres are beyond any doubt one of the most complex military defense systems ever built in the world. Erected between 1809 and 1814, this extraordinary system included 3 lines of defense, extending over 85 km from the Atlantic to the Tagus River.
Electronic Tolls
Via Verde Visitors is the only system that allows visitors to Portugal to travel on all national motorways without having to stop for tolls.
Food & Drink
Eating in Aveiro
Aveiro cuisine is naturally deeply influenced by the sea flavours, for there are many restaurants in the city where we can eat the freshest fish varieties and seafood. And obviously, codfish. Portugal's favourite fish. But Aveiro is also the place to taste new trends and a paradise for sweet-tooth travellers. "Ovos-moles" and charming patisseries leading the way.
Cities & Villages
Sleeping in Abrantes
Either in the charming city of Abrantes or in the surroundings, visitors can choose between comfortable boutique hotels, inviting local accommodations or welcoming manor houses. Perfect places to set for the discovery of a deeply surprising region!
Churches & Monasteries
Precious Crown of Our Lady of Fátima
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.
