#DecemberTravelSupportEvent I visited many cities while living in Porto for a month, and among them, I'd like to introduce you to a city called Braga, which was really great! The city itself was pretty, perhaps because it was full of high-teen material. For those traveling to Portugal, I recommend a day trip at least once..🫶🏽 🚊How to get to Braga from Porto Use the Siga card (for CP trains only), issue or recharge the card at the ticket machine at São Bento Station! (When taking the train, the station staff will scan the Siga card and confirm the ticket while you are on the way) Braga can be reached in about 1 hour and 15 minutes by taking the CP train from Porto São Bento Station! (Train intervals are about 20 minutes) 📍Places to visit in Braga 1. Congregados Basilica / 16th-century cathedral located right in front of Park Avenida Central 2. Bom Jesus do Monte / There is a funicular, but be sure to walk up and see the sanctuaries located on the stairs! 3. Letreiro de Braga / Where the Braga sign is 4. Chafariz da Praça da República / Take a break at the large fountain in front of the square 5. Tasquinha Dom Ferreira / A great place to eat bacalhau and duck rice! I was able to fully experience the charm of Braga even on a day trip🫶🏽 📍Braga, Portugal #Europe #European travel #European sensibility #European travel destination #Portugal #Portugal travel #Braga travel #braga #portugal

The history behind this place and Furnicular is so great. The church and garden are so beautiful and well maintained. The views of Braga from here are stunning. It might seem hard to climb the stairs, but their are not hard to tackle and, if you have physical problems, you can always take the funicular up and down hill. Atop of the stairs there are marvelous gardens and buildings. Also, they have restaurants and bars where you can have a drink paired with an amazing view. We suggest you go during sunset time to enjoy the golden hour for the amazing pictures. We are really enjoy during visit this site. Highly recommended site to visit. #urbanexplorer #tripblazers #mytripvlog#portugal
