Discover the Charm of Largo de Donães

Getting There

• Walking

  From the center of Guimarães, head towards the Praça de Santiago. You can start by walking down the Rua de Santo António, which will lead you towards the main square. Once you reach Praça de Santiago, continue straight onto Rua de Oliveira. You'll pass by several cafes and shops. Keep walking until you reach the end of this street, which will lead you to the Largo da Oliveira. Here, you will see the iconic Igreja de Nossa Senhora da Oliveira. From the Largo da Oliveira, take a left onto Rua do Cais. As you walk down this street, you'll notice the charming architecture surrounding you. Continue straight until you reach the end of this street. Instead of turning right, keep going straight, and you'll find yourself at Largo de Donães, which is a small yet beautiful square where you can enjoy the historical ambiance.

• Public Transport

  Although Largo de Donães is centrally located, if you prefer using public transport, you can take the local bus service. Board a bus heading towards Oliveira do Castelo from any of the main bus stops in Guimarães, such as the Terminal Rodoviário. The journey will take around 10 minutes. Once you disembark at the Oliveira do Castelo stop, walk a few steps to your left, and you'll find yourself at Largo de Donães. This option is great if you're coming from a more distant area of Guimarães.
