This beautiful hilltop city boasts a thriving arts and cultural scene, excellent local wines, a fascinating historic quarter and impressive architecture. The cobblestone streets, winding alleyways and thriving public squares of Viseu's historic district are as charming as they are well-preserved. The 12th century Se, or Cathedral, is a Romanesque building constructed upon large granite rocks and is well worth the visit. Next door, you'll find the Grão Vasco Museum, dedicated to the famous Renaissance painter who was born in Viseu. Be sure to try Dão, the local wine of the area, and Serra da Estrela, the local cheese.
