ليريا

On the banks of the River Lis

In the heart of Portugal, this beautiful city divides the country into north and south. During the Middle Ages, its strategic location made it the focus of all the economic activity in the region. Although fairly sober, its architecture also reveals the financial wealth of the city. The cathedral is one of the most impressive buildings, located in a very lively area in the heart of the city. Sato Agostinho Convent is home to the Leiria Museum, housing local works of art and archaeology. A walk along the river is an experience you should not miss if you visit Leiria on holiday.
