Braga, Exploring Portugal's Oldest City

Braga is the oldest city in Portugal, with a history that goes back to prehistoric times as evidenced by archaeological discoveries of an Indo-European Celtic people who inhabited the region long before the Romans. Walking around the city gave us the feeling of being in many different time periods with Neolithic, Roman, Medieval and Modernist buildings everywhere. We visited Braga on a daytrip from Porto and although we didn’t spend much time here, Braga was much more than expected and we recommend that anyone visiting Portugal make a daytrip to this interesting city.
