Located between Portugal´s two main cities, Porto and Lisbon, the central region of the country is a historic land with full of monuments, with a unique architectonic, historic and cultural heritage. You will find the real Portuguese soul in its university cities, quaint villages frozen in time, charming monasteries, fishing village, centuries-old castles or in its ancient convents. A region to visit and not to be missed.

This region is not only rich in culture and history, but also has beautiful natural scenery. You will have the chance to explore and admire breathtaking lighthouses on wild cliffs, pine and chestnut forests, dainty valleys, dozens of botanical species or beautiful beaches. A wonderland to rediscover the peace of the countryside in an unspoilt natural environment.

Apart from its capital, Coimbra, which has one of the world´s first university, there are more truly magical cities in this region. Thus, we can visit Aveiro, the “Portuguese Venice”, the miraculous Fatima, one of the most world-famous pilgrimage town, or the historical jewel of Tomar, which was once the seat of the Knights Templar. Central Portugal seems not to come an end.
