What to see in Bragança?

Bragança is the capital of the region of Trás-os-Montes, in the northeast of Portugal. This remote and mountainous region offers unique scenery, historic villages, natural landscapes and a rich gastronomy. Bragança is situated at the end of the Natural Park of Montesinho – one of the wildest forest areas in Europe, with a huge diversity of fauna and flora.

The inhabitants have a traditional way of life, especially in smaller cities and towns, such as Miranda do Douro, Mogadouro, Torre de Moncorvo and Freixo de Espada à Cinta. The daily life has not undergone many changes for centuries and these isolated villages have a very own rustic beauty. The region is especially beautiful in the spring when a white blanket of almond blossoms covers the valleys. The nearby Mirandela is known for its meats and alheiras, but you can find local specialties a bit throughout the region.

In a partnership with IAPMEI and Banca, the PME Líder Statutes aims to reinforce the visibility of mid-sized companies that are part of the most competitive segment of the national economy, acting as a seal of reputation and encouragement in the pursuit of business dynamics that contribute in a sustainable way for the creation of wealth and social welfare.

Turismo de Portugal, I.P. will make the best efforts to ensure that the PME Líder Statute brings significant advantages to the Company in relation to the market, namely through special conditions in access to services provided by FINCRESCE’s network of partnerships. ”
