   Aveiro

   Pass by

   Salt marshes, moliceiros and canals are the main appeal images associated with Aveiro. And it is thanks to the centuries-old presence of the Ria that they have the merit of existing.

   Aveiro, a small town? It all depends on what! Yeah, to visit it. But to hold a cathedral, that, certainly not. And I wanted to show you that.

   Museu de Aveiro / Santa Joana

   In the immediate vicinity of the canals and conveniently located in the historic heart of Aveiro, Praça da República sees locals and tourists pass through its calçada portuguesa soil, characterized by this traditional mosaic of black and white cobblestones.

8. 8

   Stop 8

   Pass by

   Coming to Aveiro and not tasting the moles, that is an unforgivable mistake. In comparison, it’s a bit like going to Lisbon and ignoring the pasteis de nata. You get the idea.

9. 9

   Stop 9

   Pass by

   What gondolas are in Venice, moliceiros are in Aveiro. In short, a flagship symbol and tourist showcase of the destination.

    Before and during your visit to Aveiro, you will never cease to hear that the city has something to remind Venice of from certain angles.

11. 11

    Ponte Lacos de Amizade

    Pass by

    Romantic, historical, colourful, flat or domed, the Aveiro bridges add a personal touch to the crossing of the canals.

12. 12

    Stop 12

    Pass by

    Spreading its canals among the houses, like tentacles of water, the Ria is inseparable from Aveiro. It’s simple, without it, the tour itinerary would not look the same at all.

13. 13

    Stop 13

    Pass by

    It is there, gracefully laid in the middle of a road in calçada portuguesa, whose mosaic of stones draws waves, that you come face to face with the religious building of the Beira Mar district.

14. 14

    Stop 14

    Pass by

    In our tour itinerary, a tour through the Beira Mar district, historic center of Aveiro, is more than fundamental. Within it, or close to it, is the majority of the city's iconic tourist attractions.

15. 15

    Praca Humberto Delgado

    Pass by

    Visiting Aveiro really doesn’t take much effort. On the one hand, the city is flat. And that, in Portugal, is a rather rare quality. And by two, she's small.

16. 16

    Antiga Capitania do Porto de Aveiro

    Pass by

    On the left, right, and even on the Ria, yes, the monuments of Aveiro are everywhere. And at the same time, for this linear building, almost on the surface of the water, it could hardly have been otherwise.

17. 17

    Forum Aveiro

    Pass by

    In the historic alleys of Aveiro, it visits, by the canals, it walks and here, by the docks, it buys.

18. 18

    Ponte Lacos de Amizade

    Pass by

    Along the sea and delicately installed on the Ria lagoon area, Aveiro is strongly marked by the presence of water.
