A rewarding road-route stop for fishing culture, local symbols and a long Atlantic promenade.

Póvoa de Varzim

Póvoa de Varzim is an Atlantic city marked by fishing, a seaside resort and the figure of Eça de Queiroz. The South Neighborhood, the Municipal Museum, the Fortaleza de Nossa Senhora da Conceição and the waterfront help to understand different identities. Poveira acronyms belong to local culture and must be presented with context, not as mere decorative graphics. An editorial introduction to the 777 km circuit that connects Minho, Trás-os-Montes, Douro and Porto.
