Leaving Curia, we walk through vineyards, historical caves and cellars, scenic viewpoints and old windmills, passing by Paço de Óis on what is believed to be the ancient Roman road Bracara-Olisipo. The timeless Curia Termas (thermal spa) and the majestic Palace Hotel stand as remarkable landmarks of history and architecture. We also pass by the "Rota da Bairrada" space for a glimpse into the rich variety of wines crafted across the entire region.
