Thanks, informative as always. BTW, I've heard a different version of that saying : "Porto works, Braga prays, Coimbra studies, and Lisbon gets the money"

Good travel commentary. I’m planning a trip to Portugal for this fall and will be in the Porto area for part of it. I think I need to take a slight detour to see Braga.

Love this post. Next time, try to include this stunning, contemplative curved wood (no nails!) chapel, built inside an existing seminary. https://thecoolhunter.net/the-tree-of-life-chapel-braga-portugal/

I want to live in Braga ! Also considering a few other places but this small city keeps catching my eye. Don’t mind change of weather will be coming from snow filled winters and 100.+ summers. Is it really a small city?
