Book a transfer from Porto to Braga — Portugal's ancient religious capital, a city of magnificent churches, baroque gardens, and the iconic Bom Jesus do Monte sanctuary with its monumental zigzag staircase.
The 55 km journey takes 45 minutes to 1 hour heading north via the A3 motorway through the green Minho countryside — Portugal's lushest region, known for its vinho verde (green wine) and granite villages.
Braga is one of Portugal's oldest cities and its ecclesiastical capital — home to the country's oldest cathedral (Se de Braga, founded 1070) and dozens of churches that earned it the nickname "Portuguese Rome." The UNESCO-listed Bom Jesus do Monte, with its 116-meter baroque stairway of allegorical fountains climbing through a forested hillside to a neoclassical church, is Portugal's most photographed religious monument. The historic center, Roman ruins of Bracara Augusta, the vibrant university atmosphere, and excellent Minho cuisine (particularly bacalhau and rojoes) make Braga a rewarding destination.
