Portugal's history is rich and profound. The country emerged as one of the greatest European powers in the 15th century, largely thanks to its impressive fleet of ships. Its famous explorers ⛵️ brought the nation undeniable historical prestige. <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vasco_da_Gama" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Vasco de Gama</a> was the first European to reach India by sea (1498). <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ferdinand_Magellan" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Fernand de Magellan</a> is said to have completed the first circumnavigation of the Earth (1519-1522), journeying through the south of <a href="kavval://countries/e090efb1-aa93-4b86-87ad-ab81a9e23be8" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Chile</a> and Tierra del Fuego... An undoubtedly unforgettable moment in history! As a nation facing the Atlantic 💦, Portugal revolves around its capital <a href="kavval://cities/a03cb509-ac1c-472d-8dfd-8eb27606d1cc" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Lisbon</a>, and the economic hub of Porto. The two most significant cities in the country don't just compete in football! We won't pick sides between these two <a href="kavval://tags/seaside" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">seaside</a> cities here; to each their own 😁. What's certain is that both cities possess an incredible charm 😍! Of course, we invite you to discover, always in moderation, the Porto wine, which adorns the hills along the Douro River, a river that originates in <a href="kavval://countries/1f42f9da-f693-4bc9-96de-bb6e531060a7" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Spain</a> and flows into the Atlantic... at Porto. The north of the country is rather mountainous, while the center and south are more suited for agriculture, with vast expanses of plateaus and plains. There are also several notable island areas, including the Azores archipelago and the island of Pico, which is home to Portugal's highest peak ⛰, Punta do Pico (2351 meters). The country has a unique way of life, and its inhabitants have a great sense of hospitality... So, <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pastel_de_nata" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">pastéis de nata</a> or bacalhau? 😋 You'll decide on the spot!Here you can find the entire calendar of races in Portugal.

A land of explorers to be discovered

One of the natural gems of the region is the <a href="https://www.montesinho.com/en" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Montesinho Natural Park</a> 🏞️, a protected area since 1979 covering more than 75,000 hectares. Renowned for its exceptional biodiversity, it is a haven for many rare species, including the <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iberian_wolf" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Iberian wolf</a>. Its forests and rivers provide an ideal setting for hiking and nature observation. Within the park, you'll find two significant mountain ranges, the <a href="https://pt.wikipedia.org/wiki/Serra_de_Montesinho" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Serra de Montesinho</a> north of Bragança, and the <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sierra_de_la_Culebra" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Serra da Coroa</a> north of Vinhais, as well as a collection of traditional villages like Franca, Montesinho, and Rio do Onor. Among the park's iconic villages, Rio de Onor is a must-visit. This village is split by the border with Spain, making one half Portuguese and the other Spanish. It's one of the last communal villages in Portugal where residents share ovens, farmland, and livestock. Nearby, a visit to Montesinho is highly recommended, a village perched over 1,000 meters above sea level, offering an authentic glimpse into rural Portugal.The city of <a href="kavval://cities/0d26afed-3870-4c58-b4dc-55dc5f5fc9f1" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Bragança</a>, the district's capital, offers a deep dive into Portuguese history. Its <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Castle_of_Bragan%C3%A7a" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">medieval castle</a> 🏰, built in the 12th century, dominates the city and provides breathtaking views of the surrounding landscape. Within the fortified walls lies the <a href="https://www.visitportugal.com/en/node/137267" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Domus Municipalis</a>, a rare example of <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Romanesque_architecture" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Romanesque civil architecture</a> in the Iberian Peninsula. The <a href="kavval://tags/d77fe708-04e5-481b-b70a-535bac5a9551" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">city</a> is also an important cultural hub 📖. It houses the Iberian Museum of Mask and Costume 🎭, showcasing the region's masked traditions, particularly those of the Caretos de Podence, iconic figures of the Portuguese carnival, now classified as UNESCO Intangible Cultural Heritage. To the south of the district, the <a href="https://www.visitportugal.com/en/node/156080" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">International Douro Natural Park</a> borders the <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Douro" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Douro River</a>, creating a natural boundary between Portugal and Spain. Its spectacular cliffs are home to diverse wildlife, including vultures and golden eagles 🦅.The Bragança district is also known for its delightful local specialties! The <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Botillo" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Botelo</a> (smoked sausage), <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alheira" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Alheira de Mirandela</a> (sausage), and posta Mirandesa offer great choices for meat lovers. If you have a sweet tooth like <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Winnie-the-Pooh" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Winnie the Pooh</a> 🐻, local honey 🍯 and chestnuts 🌰 are highly recommended.Now it's time to talk about running! For <a href="kavval://pages/30300aa8-919d-44ac-8ca6-015258ce663e" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">road racing</a>, the main event in the region is in Bragança with the <a href="kavval://events/150aaa90-b032-4a99-999a-ea4cbc75dbaa" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Meia Maratonas das Cantarinhas</a>.

Bragança District

Located in the far northeast of <a href="kavval://countries/8f307aa0-4353-482a-b8e6-e16cec4d92fd" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Portugal</a> 🇵🇹, the <a href="kavval://level1AdminAreas/4482e8d5-820c-4034-8f78-9d6f1cac4f3b" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Bragança district</a> is a region of contrasts, where wild landscapes 🏞️ meet historic villages frozen in time.
