The center of Barcelos is, in itself, the representation of its own cultural and historical heritage. Known as the capital of handicrafts and the birthplace of the legend of the Rooster of Barcelos, it has in its urban fabric the indelible mark of secular history, still alive.

Barcelos
The color, vivacity and joy of Minho are indescribable. It is worth a stroll through the center and glimpse the green spaces and colorful gardens designed by flowers and shrubs. In the streets and alleys try to raise your eyes to the decorated balconies. Enjoy the tranquility of a terrace or, simply, discover the riverside green spaces. Moving away from the city, you can easily take in the natural landscapes as far as the eye can see, but also a vast artistic, monumental and religious heritage, punctuated by sunny houses, water mills, granaries and vineyards.
