A rewarding road-route stop for goldsmithing, the Douro riverfront and hills east of Porto.
Gondomar follows the Douro east of Porto and has an identity strongly linked to goldsmithing. The Municipal Museum of Gondomar and authorized workshops contextualize this tradition; Gramido, Melres and other riverside areas show different landscapes. The municipality is extensive, so visitors should choose a riverfront or a theme rather than trying to cover everything in a short break.
