This is not only a national historic site of Portugal, but also one of the seven wonders of Portugal. In 1995, the Palace was listed as a world cultural heritage site as part of Sintra.

The property consists of a Romantic palace and chapel, and a luxurious park that features lakes, grottoes, wells, benches, fountains, and a vast array of exquisite constructions.

Coimbra, Portugal's third-largest city after Lisbon and Porto, was a former capital and was designated a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 2013. Coimbra boasts numerous ancient buildings dating back to Roman times, including many well-preserved aqueducts and covered walkways.

Upon seeing Aveiro Railway Station, the first thing that catches the eye is the blue and yellow tiles on the exterior walls, depicting various natural and cultural landscapes and traditional activities along the railway line: fishermen at work, fishmongers hawking fresh seafood, views of the central Aveiro River, salt flats, and more. Initially, the station was built in a simple and cramped building. In the early 20th century, to accommodate the rapid development of railways, modifications and expansions were made between 1915 and 1916. Construction progressed smoothly until February 1916, and by April, it was nearing completion. Thus, the charming Aveiro Station was born.

Whether you stroll through a market or relax on a terrace, Aveiro welcomes you with its warmth, color, and unique Portuguese rhythm.

The full name of this place is Costa Nova do Prado (New Coast Greenland). Its name originates from the early 19th century when fishermen from Ilhabo began settling near a beach separated from Aveiro by a lagoon, establishing a fishing village. In 1808, a bar that opened there began using the term "Costa Nova" (New Coast) to distinguish it from the Old Coast, and the fishermen later adopted "Costa Nova" as the name of the place. The colorful striped houses here are called "Palheiros," meaning "hay huts" in Portuguese, and evolved from the hay huts originally built by the fishermen. These hay huts with triangular roofs are traditional architecture in coastal Portugal, serving as warehouses for fishermen and shelters for sailors. The exterior is painted with bright red horizontal planks, paying homage to the sea with color and energy. Over time, this has evolved into the colorful striped houses we see today.
