Sitting on the shore of a lagoon known as the Ria de Aveiro, Aveiro is a colorful city known for its art nouveau buildings and its many canals. The top attractions include the beautiful Cathedral of Aveiro, the bustling fish market, and the monastery of Jesus, which also houses the city museum.

After you've seen the sights, the historic old town center is a wonderful place for an afternoon stroll, but you also shouldn't miss the change to take a ride through the canals on one of the cheerful painted boats traditionally used to harvest seaweed. Aveiro Map
