Such a rich history and beautiful architecture, and you’ve masterfully captured it in pictures and words, John!

Wow, what a gorgeous tour you took us on. Your pictures are stunning. The weather made the buildings look even better than anyone could expect. Talk about a slice of heaven. I’m surprised there wasn’t a 1948 Chevy there somewhere. 🙂

Once, a major and important city of the Roman Empire, called Bracara Augusta!

I haven’t visited Braga, but its architecture is reminiscent of Lisbon’s best sites. Its position on a hill reminds me of Coimbra.

Great collection, John. We loved Braga, too. The Bom Jesus church and steps were amazing.
