ImageTravels in Spain, The Bodega
Northern Portugal, Caminha and Viano do Castelo
After a short while we came to Caminha, which is an ancient fortress town overlooking the river Minho and is rich in historical and architectural importance. It didn’t look too promising down on the river but a short walk to the centre revealed a most appealing town with manorial houses and medieval defensive walls, a Gothic church, and a very attractive main square with cafés and a 15th century clock tower, which was sadly covered in tarpaulin while they carried out repairs. Especially interesting were the houses with colourful tiled walls in bright blues, greens and yellows.
