Braga is a city located in the north of Portugal, between the Cávado and Ave rivers, where water and greenery define the landscape. Founded by the Romans more than two thousand years ago, it became the capital of Galicia and the seat of the kingdom of the Suebi, one of the barbarian peoples who invaded the peninsula. With churches and convents on every corner, the city was governed by archbishops for almost seven centuries. Here you can climb the famous stairs of Bom Jesus do Monte or try the famous pudding invented by an inspired priest. Its main festivities take place in June with São João, but the processions that occur during Holy Week are impressive, and there is also a great celebration of its founders – the Romans – on the last weekend of May. Currently, it is the third-largest city in Portugal and one of the youngest in Europe.
