Overview

Portugal鈥檚 third-largest city is an elegant town laced with ancient narrow lanes closed to vehicles, strewn with plazas and a splendid array of baroque churches. The constant chiming of bells is a reminder of Braga鈥檚 age-old devotion to the spiritual world. Its religious festivals 鈥 particularly the elaborately staged Semana Santa (Holy Week) 鈥 are famous throughout Portugal. But don鈥檛 come expecting piety alone: Braga鈥檚 upscale old centre is packed with lively cafes and trim boutiques, some excellent restaurants and low-key bars catering to students from the Universidade do Minho.
