Viseu

The Sé de Viseu (Cathedral), the Grão Vasco Museum, the Igreja da Misericórdia, and the Aqueduto do Carmo are among the must-see attractions. Don't miss the opportunity to wander through the historic center and enjoy the views from the Rossio.

The best time to visit Viseu is during the spring (April-June) or fall (September-October) when the weather is pleasant, and the crowds are smaller. Summer (July-August) is also a good time, but it can be hot, and the city is busier.

Be sure to try the 'rojões' (braised pork), 'rancho' (a hearty stew), and the local wines from the Dão region. Also, sample the 'bolo de centeio' (rye bread) and the various pastries.
