Celorico de Basto

The municipality of Celorico de Basto, in the district of Braga, is located in a mountainous region, influenced by the Alvão, Cabreira, and Marão mountain ranges. The bucolic landscape is marked by valleys formed by the tributaries of the Tâmega River, dense forests, and fertile soils suitable for agriculture and pastoralism. When it comes to popular traditions, the municipal festivals honoring Saint James are the pinnacle. Gold thread embroidery and linen weaving are the region's most typical artisanal products. The table in Celorico is bound to be plentiful. Rice with blood, Portuguese stew, and locally prepared smoked meats are the delights of regional cuisine. The perfect pair is, of course, Vinho Verde.
