Really did not think that the trip up the mountain in the cable car €7.50 return per person, would be soo good. Yes we did pick a sunny day, but we enjoyed a 2 hour trek up through the park enjoying all the nooks and crannies between the boulders. The shrines were a delight along with the viewpoints which were fantastic of the city and the surrounding countryside. Totally worth it and a real highlight winding in and out of the giant boulders.

The Serra Penha is a very pretty hilltop park that dominates Guimaraes and offers stunning views of the town and surrounding areas. The park is terraced and is covered in large granite monoliths. The 5 euro return trip is worth the money. Even if you only have a spare 2 hours you can make this trip.

One of the most attractive Baroque churches in Portugal is an organic ensemble with a geometrically laid out garden on Largo do Brasil. It's hard to believe, but this harmony is built at different times. The Church of Our Lady of Consolation and the Holy Steps was built in the early 18th century. Two flanking bell towers were built a century later. And the design of the garden, judging by the photos, is changed annually. Excellent visual perspective is obtained. Although if you stand at the beginning of the garden with a view of the church, you can see that a perfectly straight line cutting through the rhombuses of the garden and the center of the church did not work.
