Monastery of Tibães

How To Visit The Monastery Of Tibães This Year

The Monastery of Tibães is one of the most beautiful and important monasteries in Portugal. In fact, I think it’s a pity that this monument hasn’t been inscribed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site (yet), like the Monasteries of Batalha, Hieronymites, and Alcobaça. If you’re thinking of visiting Braga, I recommend you spend one day exploring its historic center and another discovering the religious heritage on the outskirts of the city – namely the Sanctuary of Bom Jesus and the Monastery of Tibães!

Palace of Monserrate

Palace Of Monserrate: Best Tips For Visiting This Year

The Palace of Monserrate is one of the many existing palaces in Sintra, Portugal. And although it’s not as visited as the famous National Palace of Pena, the Palace of Monserrate is well worth a visit! This estate is the perfect example of Romanticism in Portugal and what eclectic life would have been like in the 19th century. In addition, its “exotic” architecture mixes Gothic, Indian, and Moorish influences, blending perfectly with a botanical park where species from all over the world grow!

Sanctuary of Bom Jesus

How To Visit The Sanctuary Of Bom Jesus This Year

The Sanctuary of Bom Jesus is a reference to Neoclassical art in Portugal and the best-known sanctuary in the country, after the Sanctuary of Fátima. Therefore, exploring this “sacred hill” is a highly recommended experience for all travelers and tourists visiting the city of Braga and the northern region of Portugal. The Bom Jesus is just a few kilometers from the historic center but has excellent access to transportation. Besides, it’s the perfect spot to admire the sunset over Braga!
