Santa Luzia Sanctuary is the city’s calling card from which you have a prestigious view of the river, sea and mountains.

This view is considered the 3rd best in the world, according to National Geographic.

Viana do Castelo has a characteristic medieval centre and wonderful beaches bathed by the ocean and river. In contrast it is considered the “Mecca of Architecture” thanks to the many important Portuguese contemporary monuments.

Viana’s Heart is a heart-shaped gold medal that Minho women wear to their chest with their costume.
