Sátão

Crossed by the Sátão Stream, Sátão's landscape is essentially rural, marked by dams, the Serra de São Matias, its vast religious heritage, and archaeological remains. Sátão also boasts the largest tree in Portugal, the Contige Eucalyptus. The region's gastronomy is characterized by goat, veal, beans cooked with cabbage, and pork, which should be accompanied by oven-baked bread, as is the case with the river's typical fish. Conventual sweets are joined by traditional sweets: "cavacas" and "cavacos", rice pudding, fries, and olive oil cake, which pair well with traditional liqueurs. Memorable features of this municipality include the "palhoças" (rain shelters made of reeds), wooden items, basketwork, and stonework.
