Braga looks just beautiful - it's definitely going on our list of places to visit! With the gray skies it reminds me of when we lived in Edinburgh, where we didn't mind the weather (gray skies and fog suited the city!); however, the tween would have a very different opinion...
Thanks for this informative post about Braga. I have traveled in the north - but hugged the coast to Viana do Castelo. I have wanted to get to the soccer stadium where Braga's club plays. It seems to be cut right into a hillside with rocky outcroppings encasing the stands and the pitch. I hope you can get back to explore further. Carpe diem! (Aproveite o dia!)
We had a similar experience in Seville after my husband ate a fish dinner. He was violently ill all night, then it passed - a freight train. My research suggested some weird bacteria that is not detectable. Anyhow, sorry you didn't like Porto. We did, but also didn't explore extensively away from the river. Braga sounds wonderful. We'll have to check it out next time.

Amazing photos! I want to move there now too!
This place is beautiful! I KNOW I could live here!! But, like you, I would need those amenities too! A church, friends, doctors, etc.!! 🥰

Dry humor! Most enjoyable!
How can you not love a town with a dragon statue? And an amazing dragon it is!
Sea bass might now be on the do not repeat list?
