On the top of a hill, the Sanctuary of Bom Jesus emerges as an important point of pilgrimage. Behind Mount Sameiro, a colossal statue of Our Lady blesses the region. Gardens, parks and solariums of the 18th century complete the scenery, which gains a unique flavor in specialized kitchens in traditional duck and cod rice to the minhota. Braga is the oldest city in Portugal.
