Miradouro de Sao Leonardo de Galafura

Reviewed By dexxyAberystwyth

Not easy to reach but well worth the effort. Continue down the road from Galafura to Covelhinas and on to Regua for a real treat.

The Douro Valley

Reviewed By judythr

We stayed at the Quinta Monte Bravo, a bit off the beaten track but lovely and Teresa's dinners were far better than at any restaurant we visited in Portugal except maybe one. The sheer beauty of the terraced vineyards and olive groves plus the beautiful and historic river Douro are just amazing! And, yes, this is a UNESCO World Heritage site, which speaks for itself!

Casal de Loivos Viewpoint

Reviewed By 653katherined - Brussels, Belgium

We took the short drive up from Pinhao to Casal de Loivos and were not disappointed. It is definitely worth a drive if you are in Pinhao and if you have an hour time left I would suggest you spend it at The nearby small « olive oil museum » where you can enjoy similar views while tasting their local products

Ponte Romana de Trajano

Reviewed By JaniceC471 - Bedford, United Kingdom

Lovely authentic Portuguese town, with plenty of sights to admire while you wander around the town. The Roman Bridge connects both sides of the town and as it is for pedestrians you can stroll slowly and admire the views of the town and the river.

6. Miradouro Sao Domingos

Pinhao Railway Station

Reviewed By kiwibuddy1 - Grand Bend, Canada

Portugal has many beautiful railway stations, but Pinhao's must rank with the best. The four walls of the station are decorated with 24 blue glazed mosaics depicting scenes from the Douro Valley, especially those related to the production of port wine.
