Aveiro Portugal

Known as the Portuguese Venice, the charming city of Aveiro is crossed by a canal and is considered one of the most alluring destinations in the country, thanks to its colourful moliceiros or gondolas, the buildings in pastel shades of Art and its quiet atmosphere Urban, an ideal setting for your holiday, and its natural lakes and lagoons. It captures the essence of a destination we would expect to see in a travel book. While in town, visit the famous Fish Market, choose one of the traditional bakeries as you stroll through the city and taste the divine "ovos moles" (soft eggs), which are the region's speciality. Stroll through the city's sparkling canal and picturesque alleyways, explore some of the city's furthest attractions and discover Ílhavo. This seaside town boasts the maritime heritage of Aveiro and is where the famous porcelain factory of Vista Alegre is located.
