Coimbra cascades down the hillside to the east bank of the Rio Mondego and is the fourth-largest urban center in Portugal. Known as the ‘university city’ of Portugal, Coimbra was once the capital of Portugal and is the home of the country’s oldest university which was founded in 1290. Coimbra is an atmospheric, colorful and lively city filled with beautiful buildings and monuments that date back to the Roman era. Much of Portugal’s cultural heritage is evident in Coimbra in its stunning Medieval and Romanesque buildings and churches, exquisite botanical gardens and world famous museums – all of these compose a beautiful city that should not be missed!
